A wind with speed `40 m//s` blows parallel to the roof of a house. The area of the roof is `250 m^(2)` . Assuming that the pressure inside the house is atmospheric pressure, the force exerted by the wind on the roof and the direction of the force will be : `(rho_(air)=1.2 kg//m^(3))`

A

`(rho _("air") =1.2 kg//m^(3))`

B

`4.8xx10^(5) N,` unpwards.

C

`2.4 xx10^(5)N,` upwards.

D

`2.4 xx10^(5) N,` downwards.
