Answer:

Well pretty interesting equation.

Well breaking the glass windows isn't so easy as we may think.

Glass has in it strong covalent bonds between oxygen and silicon atoms.

Which if viewed from the microscopic world, are actually pretty strong.

So, the force applied by the atmospheric pressure is not that enough to generate a force such that it exceeds the tensile strength of the material of the glass.

Also, just in case if you really want to know when the glass windows break, let a jet aircraft just pass over the building from a few meters above, and All the glass will be shattered this is the power of the jet engines.

Other way that you could break glass is by throwing at it a strong wave of resonant frequency such that it makes the glass vibrate harder and more such that it finally cracks.

A very nice demonstration to this has been done on YouTube by This channel called PhysicsGirl.

You may watch that video for reference.

However, the most basic reason that can be given for glass not breaking due to atmospheric pressure is that the force caused due to atmospheric pressure is acting from both sides of the glass and hence creating a balanced force pair.

Hope this helps you !
