What force does this pressure exert on a dart

Reference no: EM13665130

Many cultures around the world still use a simple weapon called a blowgun, a tube by a dart that fits tightly inside. A sharp breath into the end of the tube launches the dart. When exhaling forcefully, a healthy person can supply air at a measure pressure of 6.0 kPa.

a) What force does this pressure exert on a dart in a 1.1-cm-diameter tube?
