Converting from Megapascal (MPa) to Pascal (Pa)

What is Megapascal (MPa)

Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure widely used in engineering and construction. It is equal to one million pascals (Pa), which makes it a high-pressure unit commonly used for heavy-duty applications.

What is Pascal (Pa)

Pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure, named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal. It is defined as one newton per square meter. Pascal is a smaller unit compared to Megapascal and is often used in scientific and everyday situations where lower pressures are involved.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Megapascal to Pascal, you can use the following formula:

P (Pa)=P (MPa)×1000000

To convert from Pascal to Megapascal, you can use the formula:

P (MPa)=P (Pa)×0.000001

Examples

• Converting 6 MPa to Pa:

6(MPa)=6×1000000=6000000(Pa)

• Converting 9 Pa to MPa:

9(Pa)=9×0.000001=0.000009(MPa)

• Converting 16 MPa to Pa:

16(MPa)=16×1000000=16000000(Pa)
