In Guericke's experiment to show the effect of atmospheric pressure, two copper hemispheres were tightly fitted to each other to form a hollow sphere and the air from the sphere was pumped out to create vacuum inside. If the radius of each hemisphere is $R$ and the atmospheric pressure is $p$, then the minimum force required (when the two hemispheres are pulled apart by the same force) to separate the hemispheres is
