What are Centipascal and Newton

Definition of Centipascal

A centipascal (cPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one hundredth of a pascal. The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure and is defined as one newton per square meter. The centipascal, being a smaller unit, is often used for measuring low levels of pressure in scientific and engineering contexts.

Definition of Newton

The newton (N) is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is defined as the force necessary to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, the newton encapsulates the fundamental relationship between mass, acceleration, and force.

Centipascal to Newton Conversion Table

Centipascal (cPa) Newton per square Centimeter (N/cm²)
10 cPa 0.0001 N/cm²
50 cPa 0.0005 N/cm²
100 cPa 0.001 N/cm²
500 cPa 0.005 N/cm²
1000 cPa 0.01 N/cm²
5000 cPa 0.05 N/cm²
10000 cPa 0.1 N/cm²
50000 cPa 0.5 N/cm²
100000 cPa 1 N/cm²
500000 cPa 5 N/cm²

Conversion of Centipascal to Newton

1 cPa = 0.00001 N/cm²
1 N/cm² = 100000 cPa

Example 1:
Convert 200 cPa to N/cm²:
200 cPa = 200 × 0.00001 N/cm² = 0.002 N/cm²

Example 2:
Convert 1500 cPa to N/cm²:
1500 cPa = 1500 × 0.00001 N/cm² = 0.015 N/cm²
