megapascal to atmosphere
Please provide values below to convert megapascal [MPa] to atmosphere [atm], or change ↔.
megapascal [MPa]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equal to one million pascals (1 MPa = 1,000,000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The megapascal is frequently used in high-pressure industries like engineering and material science.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in the testing of materials, particularly in the strength of metals and other structural components.
funfact: The strength of steel is often measured in megapascals!
atmosphere [atm]
Definition: A unit of pressure defined as 101,325 pascals, approximately the atmospheric pressure at sea level.
Historyandorigin: The atmosphere was originally defined as the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere at sea level, based on early barometric measurements.
CurrentUse: Used in meteorology, physics, and engineering to express pressure relative to Earth's atmosphere.
funfact: The term 'atmosphere' is still widely used in weather reports, such as 'high-pressure systems' or 'low-pressure systems'!

How to Convert megapascal to atmosphere
1 megapascal [MPa] = 0.101325 atmosphere [atm]
1 atmosphere [atm] = 9.8692326672 megapascal [MPa]
we use cross multiplication method
megapascal [MPa] → atmosphere [atm]
1 → 0.101325
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.101325=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.1519875
