QuestionWhat is the pressure in pascals if Thomas measured it as $1.25 \mathrm{~atm}$ ? Use $1.0 \mathrm{~atm} = 100000 \mathrm{~Pa}$ .

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The pressure measured by Thomas is1.25 atm. The conversion factor from atm to Pa is1.0 atm =100000 Pa

STEP 2

We need to convert the pressure from atm to Pa. We can do this by multiplying the pressure in atm by the conversion factor.
$Pressure_{Pa} = Pressure_{atm} \\times Conversion\, factor$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the pressure in atm and the conversion factor to calculate the pressure in Pa.
$Pressure_{Pa} =1.25\, atm \\times100000\, Pa/atm$

STEP 4

Calculate the pressure in Pa.
$Pressure_{Pa} =1.25 \\times100000 =125000\, Pa$ The pressure inside the balloon is $125000\, Pa$ .
