Th e pressure rise p associated with wind hitting a window of a building can be estimated

Question:

Th e pressure rise Δp associated with wind hitting a window of a building can be estimated using the formula Δp = ρ(V2/2), where ρ is density of air and V is the speed of the wind. Apply the grid method to calculate pressure rise for ρ = 1.2 kg/m3 and V = 60 mph.
