A spur pinion of pitch diameter $50$ $mm$ rotates at $200$ $rad/s$ and transmits $3 kW$ power. The pressure angle of the tooth of the pinion is $20^\circ$. Assuming that only one pair of the teeth is in contact, the total force (in newton) exerted by a tooth of the pinion on the tooth on a mating gear is _______
