Pressure:
Since pressure is calculated as thrust per unit area, it is directly proportional to thrust and inversely related to area. A scalar quantity, such as pressure, has merely a magnitude and no direction. Pressure can have a positive or negative value. Value of 1atm in Pa:
The SI unit of pressure is the pascal. and one pascal is equal to 1 newton force applied on an area of 1m2One bar is equal to the atmospheric pressure at the average sea level and at g=9.8ms-2 where, g is the acceleration due to gravity. There are other units of pressure like bar and dyne. Because of the earth's gravitational pull, gases are drawn toward it, creating atmospheric pressure. 1atm is the pressure at the average sea level. At the different points, the value of atmospheric pressure varies.As we know that 1bar=105pa.....(i)and1atm=1.01325bar.....(ii).From equations (i) and (ii), we can easily get1atm=1.01235×105Pa1atm=101325Pa
Hence, the pressure of 1 atm is 101325 Pa.
