bar to kilopascal
Please provide values below to convert bar to kilopascal [kPa], or change ↔.
bar
Definition: A metric unit of pressure, equivalent to 100,000 pascals, or roughly equal to atmospheric pressure at sea level.
Historyandorigin: The bar was introduced by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and is used in meteorology and engineering.
CurrentUse: Used in fields such as meteorology and diving to measure atmospheric pressure or the pressure underwater.
funfact: Although the bar is not an SI unit, it is commonly used in weather reports and daily pressure measurements!
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: A unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals, commonly used in weather and engineering.
Historyandorigin: The kilopascal is a common multiple of the pascal, introduced to handle pressure values in a more manageable range.
CurrentUse: Widely used in meteorology for atmospheric pressure and in engineering for systems under moderate pressure.
funfact: Weather reports often use kilopascals to measure atmospheric pressure, particularly in regions where the pascal is too small a unit!

How to Convert bar to kilopascal
1 bar = 1.E-10 kilopascal [kPa]
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 10000000000 bar
we use cross multiplication method
bar → kilopascal [kPa]
1 → 1.E-10
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-10=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-10
