dyne per square centimeter to kilopascal
Please provide values below to convert dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2] to kilopascal [kPa], or change ↔.
dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2]
Definition: A CGS (centimeter-gram-second) unit of pressure, where one dyne is applied per square centimeter of area.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the CGS system, and is more commonly used in older scientific literature or in specific scientific measurements.
CurrentUse: Used in specific physics and engineering applications, especially when working within the CGS system.
funfact: The dyne per square centimeter is an older unit, with the pascal now being more widely used!
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 dyne per square centimeter to kilopascal
1 dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2] = 1.E-9 kilopascal [kPa]
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 1000000000 dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2]
we use cross multiplication method
dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2] → kilopascal [kPa]
1 → 1.E-9
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-9=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-9
