kilopascal to newton per square meter
Please provide values below to convert kilopascal [kPa] to newton per square meter [N/m^2], or change ↔.
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: A derived unit of pressure, equal to one thousand pascals (1 kPa = 1000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The kilopascal is commonly used for everyday pressure measurements, especially in meteorology and engineering.
CurrentUse: Used for measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and other common pressure-related applications.
funfact: A standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is approximately 101.325 kPa!
newton per square meter [N/m^2]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equivalent to one pascal (1 N/m^2 = 1 Pa).
Historyandorigin: This unit is based on Newton's second law of motion, where force is applied over an area.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific and engineering contexts for precise pressure measurements, particularly in the study of fluids and gases.
funfact: The newton per square meter is another way to express pressure, often interchangeable with pascals!

How to Convert kilopascal to newton per square meter
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 0.001 newton per square meter [N/m^2]
1 newton per square meter [N/m^2] = 1000 kilopascal [kPa]
we use cross multiplication method
kilopascal [kPa] → newton per square meter [N/m^2]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
