bar to kilopascal
Please provide values below to convert bar [bar] to kilopascal [kPa], or change ↔.
bar [bar]
Definition: The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 pascals, slightly less than the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level.
Historyandorigin: The bar was introduced by meteorologists in the 19th century as a convenient unit for measuring atmospheric pressure.
CurrentUse: It is used in meteorology and engineering, particularly in countries that use the metric system.
funfact: One bar is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure at sea level.
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals.
Historyandorigin: Kilopascals were introduced as a more practical unit of pressure in everyday use, as pascals themselves are too small.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used to measure pressure in industrial, engineering, and meteorological contexts.
funfact: The standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101.325 kPa!

How to Convert bar to kilopascal
1 bar [bar] = 100 kilopascal [kPa]
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 0.01 bar [bar]
we use cross multiplication method
bar [bar] → kilopascal [kPa]
1 → 100
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*100=1*x
by simplifying
x=150
