pascal second to centipoise
Please provide values below to convert pascal second [Pa·s] to centipoise [cP], or change ↔.
pascal second [Pa·s]
Definition: The pascal second is a unit of dynamic viscosity, which measures the resistance of a fluid to flow.
Historyandorigin: Named after Blaise Pascal, the pascal unit was introduced in 1971 as part of the SI system of units. The 'second' denotes the time component in viscosity.
CurrentUse: It is used to measure the viscosity of fluids in physics, engineering, and various industrial processes.
funfact: In practical terms, the pascal second is often seen in fields dealing with thick fluids, like oils and syrups!
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!

How to Convert pascal second to centipoise
1 pascal second [Pa·s] = 0.01 centipoise [cP]
1 centipoise [cP] = 100 pascal second [Pa·s]
we use cross multiplication method
pascal second [Pa·s] → centipoise [cP]
1 → 0.01
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.01=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.015
