Answer :
To pass it to atmospheres per kilometer you must multiply the value you have by 1000 because one kilometer represents 1000 meters. Therefore the correct answer would be that 0.992 atmospheres (atm) per meter (m) are 992 atmospheres per kilometer.
Answer:
Rate of increase in water pressure is [tex]992\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{\text{km}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The water pressure on Mustafa as he dives is increasing at a rate of [tex]0.992\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{\text{m}}[/tex]
We know that,
[tex]1\ Kilometer=1\ meter\ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ 1\ meter=10^{-3}\ Kilometer[/tex]
Hence,
[tex]0.992\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{10^{-3}\ \text{km}}=0.992\times 10^3\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{\text{km}}=992\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{\text{km}}[/tex]
Therefore, rate of increase in water pressure is [tex]992\ \dfrac{\text{atm}}{\text{km}}[/tex]
