Answer

$1.01 \times 10^ 5\ Pa$

Work Step by Step

Using our knowledge of units, we find: $1 \times 1.01 \times 10^5\ Pa$ To convert to scientific notation, move the decimal to the right or left, counting the number of times that you do so, until you get a number that is at least 1 but that is less than 10. If you moved the decimal right, the number of times the decimal is moved will be negative, while moving left yields a positive number. Then, raise 10 to that number. This gives: $1.01 \times 10^ 5\ Pa$
