What are Centipascal and Bar

Definition of Centipascal

A centipascal is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to one-hundredth of a pascal. The pascal, the SI unit for pressure, represents a force of one newton per square meter. Centipascal, being a smaller subdivision, is used for measuring low-pressure values in scientific and engineering contexts.

Definition of Bar

A bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as exactly 100,000 pascals. It is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. While not an SI unit, the bar is widely used in scientific, engineering, and meteorological fields to measure pressures, due to its closeness to the atmospheric pressure.

Conversion of Centipascal to Bar

1 cPa = 1e-5 Bar
100 cPa = 0.001 Bar

Example 1:
convert 200 cPa to Bar:
200 cPa = 200 × 1e-5 Bar = 0.002 Bar

Example 2:
convert 4500 cPa to Bar:
4500 cPa = 4500 × 1e-5 Bar = 0.045 Bar

History of Centipascal and Bar
