gigapascal to bar
Please provide values below to convert gigapascal [GPa] to bar, or change ↔.
gigapascal [GPa]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equal to one billion pascals (1 GPa = 1,000,000,000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The gigapascal is used for extremely high-pressure applications, typically in material science and deep geological studies.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific research and engineering for measuring high-pressure environments, such as those found in deep-sea exploration or the manufacturing of advanced materials.
funfact: Diamonds have a hardness that can be measured in gigapascals!
bar
Definition: A metric unit of pressure, equal to 100,000 pascals or 100 kilopascals.
Historyandorigin: The bar was introduced as a convenient way to measure pressure in the early 20th century, particularly in meteorology.
CurrentUse: Widely used in meteorology, oceanography, and in the measurement of pressure in natural gas pipelines.
funfact: The bar is close to atmospheric pressure at sea level, but it is not an SI unit!

How to Convert gigapascal to bar
1 gigapascal [GPa] = 0.0001 bar
1 bar = 10000 gigapascal [GPa]
we use cross multiplication method
gigapascal [GPa] → bar
1 → 0.0001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.00015
