A rubber suction hook, when pressed firmly against a smooth tile, sticks to it and can hold a towel. Explain why.
A table top measures 1.2 m × 0.6 m. Taking atmospheric pressure as 1.0 \times 10^{5} Pa, find the force (in N) exerted by the air on the top surface of the table. (Think: why does the table not break?)
