Key Stage 4
Meaning
Pascals (Pa) are the SI Unit for pressure.
About Pascals
- Pascals are shortened to Pa with an upper case P and a lower case a.
- A Pascal is the same as a Newton per metre squared.
Converting to Pascals
| Unit | To convert | Pascals |
| 1 megapascal (1MPa) | Convert to Pascals x106 | 1x106Pa |
| 1 kilopascal (1kPa) | Convert to Pascals x103 | 1x103Pa |
| 1 Pascal (1Pa) | Convert to Pascals x1 | 1Pa |
| 1 millipascal 1(mPa) | Convert to Pascals x10-3 | 1x10-3Pa |
| 1 micropascal 1(µPa) | Convert to Pascals x10-6 | 1x10-6Pa |
| 1 nanopascal 1(nPa) | Convert to Pascals x10-9 | 1x10-9Pa |
