The correct answer is: $0.57 \mathrm{~N}$
Pressure difference $\Delta \mathrm{p}=\rho \mathrm{gh}$ and force exerted
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{F}=\Delta \mathrm{P} . \mathrm{A}=\rho \mathrm{gh} .2 \pi \mathrm{r}(\mathrm{r}+\mathrm{h}) \\
& =1.1 \times 10^3 \times 10 \times 1.65 \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 0.5 \times 10^{-3} \\
& \left(0.5 \times 10^{-3}+\mathrm{h}\right) \\
& =18150 \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 0.5 \times 10^{-3}\left(0.5 \times 10^{-3}+10 \times\right. \\
& \left.10^{-3}\right) \\
& \therefore \mathrm{F} \cong 0.57 \mathrm{~N} .
\end{aligned}
