Detailed Solution

Data provided: Input area (A) = 80cm2
Atmospheric pressure = 1.01 × 105 Pa
Power consumption (F active) = 600 N
When F is strong, P presses and A is the valve area
. Fatm = PatmA
when Patm is a pressure in space, A is the space cover
as well as
Finside = PinsideA
When Pinside has pressure in the box, A is the cover area
This replaces the equation Fatm = Fapplied + Finside
Hence  PatmA = Fapplied + PinsideA
1.01×105×80×10-4=600+Pinside 80×10-4
1.01×105×80×10-4-600=Pinside 80×10-4

 (substituting for Pinside )
Pinside =1.01×105×80×10-4-60080×10-4 (first multiplication and subtraction)
=1.01×80×10-60080×10-4=208-60080×10-4=2.6×104Pa
Hence the pressure inside the box is 2.6×104 Pa
