Pressure cookers use water at very high pressures to cook food
very quickly. They have been around for more than 300 years,
although their use has strongly declined in recent years (early
models had a nasty habit of exploding). How much force, in newtons,
must the latches holding the lid onto a pressure cooker be able to
withstand if the circular lid is 27.5 cm in diameter and the gauge
pressure inside is 1.05 atm? Neglect the weight of the lid.
