pascal to kilopascal
Please provide values below to convert pascal [Pa] to kilopascal [kPa], or change ↔.
pascal [Pa]
Definition: The SI unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Blaise Pascal, this unit is part of the International System of Units (SI), introduced to standardize pressure measurements.
CurrentUse: Used universally in physics, engineering, and meteorology to measure pressure, including atmospheric pressure and fluid dynamics.
funfact: The pressure exerted by Earth's atmosphere at sea level is approximately 101,325 pascals, or 1 atmosphere (atm).
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 pascal to kilopascal
1 pascal [Pa] = 0.00001 kilopascal [kPa]
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 100000 pascal [Pa]
we use cross multiplication method
pascal [Pa] → kilopascal [kPa]
1 → 0.00001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.00001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.000015
