$A$ submarine has a window of area $30 \times 30 \,cm^2$ on its ceiling and is at a depth of $100 \,m$ below sea level. If the pressure inside the submarine is maintained at the sea-level atmospheric pressure,then the force acting on the window is ............. $N$ (consider density of sea water $\rho = 1.03 \times 10^3 \,kg/m^3$,acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \,m/s^2$).
