Thus, 100,000 N of thrust acts on every 1m^2 of the surface of objects on the earth. ]]> 2020-07-07 14:12:15 UTC https://padlet.com/neevcr7/s8jxfybsr5t4rlul/wish/649214446 neevcr7 https://padlet.com/neevcr7/s8jxfybsr5t4rlul/wish/649216100 The reason we can't feel it is that the air within our bodies is exerting the same pressure outwards, so there's no pressure difference and no need for us to exert any effort.]]> 2020-07-07 14:14:05 UTC https://padlet.com/neevcr7/s8jxfybsr5t4rlul/wish/649216100
