Key Stage 4

Meaning

Micropascals (µPa) are a unit of pressure 1,000,000 times smaller than the SI Unit; the Pascal.

About Micropascals

Micropascals are shortened to µPa with the Greek letter µ, an upper case P and a lower case a..
Micro means one millionth so there are 1,000,000 micropascals in a Pascal.

Converting to Micropascals

Unit To convert Micropascals
1 megapascal (1MPa) Convert to micropascals x1012 1x1012 µPa
1 kilopascal (1kPa) Convert to micropascals x109 1x109 µPa
1 Pascal (1Pa) Convert to micropascals x106 1x106 µPa
1 millipascal 1(mPa) Convert to micropascals x103 1x103 µPa
1 micropascal 1(µPa) Convert to micropascals x1 1µPa
1 nanopascal 1(nPa) Convert to micropascals x10-3 1x10-3 µPa
