Hi cseet,

To convert pressure amplitude from atm to Pa, you can use the conversion factor of 101325 Pa/atm. So, to convert 1E-7 atm to Pa, you would multiply 1E-7 by 101325. This would give you a pressure amplitude of 10.1325 Pa. Remember to always include the correct units in your calculations to ensure accuracy.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
