To convert atmospheric pressure into kilopascals (kPa), we need to use the following conversion factor:
1 atmosphere (atm) = 101.325 kPa
Step-by-step process:
1. Know the value of atmospheric pressure in atm: Atmospheric pressure at sea level is typically around 1 atm.
2. Use the conversion factor: To convert from atm to kPa, multiply the atmospheric pressure in atm by 101.325.
Pressure in kPa=Pressure in atm×101.325\text{Pressure in kPa} = \text{Pressure in atm} \times 101.325
Example:
If you have a pressure of 1 atm, to convert it to kPa:
Pressure in kPa=1 atm×101.325=101.325 kPa\text{Pressure in kPa} = 1 \, \text{atm} \times 101.325 = 101.325 \, \text{kPa}
Thus, atmospheric pressure in kilopascals (kPa) is 101.325 kPa for 1 atm.
If you are given a different pressure value in atm, simply multiply by 101.325 to convert it to kPa.
