micropascal to dyne per square centimeter
Please provide values below to convert micropascal [µPa] to dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2], or change ↔.
micropascal [µPa]
Definition: One millionth of a pascal, often used to measure very low sound pressures or tiny forces.
Historyandorigin: The micropascal is a derived unit of pressure, a subunit of the pascal.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in oceanography, seismology, and acoustics, especially in measuring sound waves at very low intensities.
funfact: In sensitive fields like underwater acoustics, micropascals are used to measure the faintest sounds made by marine life or environmental noise.
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!

How to Convert micropascal to dyne per square centimeter
1 micropascal [µPa] = 0.01 dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2]
1 dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2] = 100 micropascal [µPa]
we use cross multiplication method
micropascal [µPa] → dyne per square centimeter [dyn/cm^2]
1 → 0.01
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.01=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.015
