Answer: 0.0186 atm
Explanation:
Pressure can be measured in the following units: Pascals (pa), atmosphere (Atm), Newton per metre square (Nm^-2).
In this case,
Pressure of detector = 1.88kPa
(Covert 1.88kPa to Pascal)
Recall that 1kPa = 1000Pa
1.88kPa = 1.88 x 1000 = 1880Pa
Now, convert 1880Pa to Atm
Recall that:
1 Atm = 101325 pascal (Pa).
Z Atm = 1880Pa
To get the value of Z, cross multiply
1880Pa x 1 Atm = 101325Pa x Z Atm
1880 = 101325Z
Divide both sides by 101325
1880/101325 = 101325Z/101325
0.0186 = Z
Thus, the 0.0186 atm (atmospheres) of pressure in 1.88kPa
