Question

One atmospheric pressure is _____ kPa.

Open in App

Solution

Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area.
Unit of pressure is pascal.
Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the weight of air per unit area.
The value of atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101.325kPa
Hence, One atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa.
