Solution

Dear Student
Thrust is the Force per unit area.
We know the envelope of different gases surrounding the earth is known as the atmosphere. It extends up to a few thousand kilometres. The pressure exerted by the weight of these gases in the atmosphere is known as atmospheric pressure. It is the force exerted on a unit area of surface by the weight of air above that surface.
