Answer

(a) $10^{-1}Pa$ (b) $10^{-6}atm$

Work Step by Step

(a) The pressure in pascals can be obtained as $10^{-5}N=(\frac{1dyne}{cm^2})(\frac{10^{-5}}{dyne})(\frac{100cm}{m})^2=10^{-1}Pa$ (b) The pressure in atmoshperes can be obtained as $10^{-5}N=10^{-1}Pa(\frac{1atm}{101.3\times 10^3Pa})=10^{-6}atm$
