About these units
Pascal (Pa)
- Definition
- The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure, equal to one newton of force per square meter.
- History
- Named after Blaise Pascal, it was adopted as the SI pressure unit in 1971.
- Current use
- Pascals and kilopascals are used in science, engineering, and weather reporting.
Kilopascal (kPa)
- Definition
- A kilopascal (kPa) is 1,000 pascals, a convenient size for everyday pressures.
- History
- It is a metric multiple of the pascal.
- Current use
- Kilopascals express tyre pressure and atmospheric pressure in many countries.
