Discover the ease of converting Centipascal to Millibar with Newtum's precise cPa to mbar online tool – your go-to solution for accurate pressure unit conversions.
A Centipascal (cPa) is a unit of pressure that is equal to one hundredth of a Pascal, the SI unit of pressure. One Pascal is defined as one Newton per square meter. The Centipascal is a small unit of pressure that is often used in scientific and engineering calculations where precise measurements of low pressure are required.
Definition of MillibarA Millibar (mbar) is a metric unit of pressure that is equal to 1/1000th of a bar or 100 Pascals. The term 'bar' comes from the Greek word 'baros,' meaning weight. The Millibar is commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure and is considered a convenient unit for many practical purposes in weather forecasting and reporting.
| Centipascal (cPa) | Millibar (mbar) |
|---|---|
| 10 cPa | 0.001 mbar |
| 100 cPa | 0.01 mbar |
| 500 cPa | 0.05 mbar |
| 1000 cPa | 0.1 mbar |
| 5000 cPa | 0.5 mbar |
| 10000 cPa | 1 mbar |
| 15000 cPa | 1.5 mbar |
| 20000 cPa | 2 mbar |
| 25000 cPa | 2.5 mbar |
| 30000 cPa | 3 mbar |
1 cPa = 0.00001 mbar
100 cPa = 0.001 mbar
Example 1:
convert 2000 cPa to mbar:
2000 cPa = 2000 × 0.00001 mbar = 0.02 mbar
Example 2:
convert 7500 cPa to mbar:
7500 cPa = 7500 × 0.00001 mbar = 0.075 mbar
A brief history of the Centipascal to Millibar Converter traces back to the utilization of the Pascal and bar units in scientific measurements. Over time, the need for smaller subdivisions led to the creation of Centipascal and Millibar for more precise calculations in various fields, including meteorology and engineering.
The Centipascal to Millibar Converter is an indispensable tool for professionals who require accurate pressure conversions in their everyday tasks.
Example 1:
To convert 2500 cPa to mbar:
2500 cPa = 0.025 mbar
Example 2:
To convert 12500 cPa to mbar:
12500 cPa = 0.125 mbar
