A femtopascal (fPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to 10^-15 pascals. It represents a very small fraction of a pascal, which is the standard unit of pressure defined as one newton per square meter. The femtopascal is used in scientific contexts where extremely low pressures are measured and discussed.
Definition of Newton square CentimeterA newton per square centimeter (N/cm²) is a derived unit of pressure in the metric system. It is defined as the pressure exerted by a force of one newton uniformly applied over an area of one square centimeter. This unit is commonly used in various engineering and scientific calculations involving pressure where the scale is moderate.
| Femtopascal (fPa) | Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²) |
|---|---|
| 10 fPa | 1e-13 N/cm² |
| 100 fPa | 1e-12 N/cm² |
| 500 fPa | 5e-12 N/cm² |
| 1,000 fPa | 1e-11 N/cm² |
| 5,000 fPa | 5e-11 N/cm² |
| 10,000 fPa | 1e-10 N/cm² |
| 50,000 fPa | 5e-10 N/cm² |
| 100,000 fPa | 1e-09 N/cm² |
| 500,000 fPa | 5e-09 N/cm² |
| 1,000,000 fPa | 1e-08 N/cm² |
1 fPa = 1e-15 N/m²
1 N/m² = 1e+15 fPa
Example 1:
Convert 5 fPa to N/cm²:
5 fPa = 5 × 1e-15 N/m² = 5e-15 N/cm²
Example 2:
Convert 2,000 fPa to N/cm²:
2,000 fPa = 2,000 × 1e-15 N/m² = 2e-12 N/cm²
The Femtopascal to Newton square Centimeter Converter has its roots in the need to bridge different units of pressure. With advancements in science and technology, especially in fields requiring ultra-precise measurements like quantum physics and nanotechnology, converting between such small-scale pressure units became crucial, leading to the development of specialized tools like this converter.
Understanding the practical uses of the fPa to N/cm² converter unveils the tool's significance in real-world applications.
Example 1:
To convert 50 fPa to N/cm²:
50 fPa = 50 × 1e-15 N/m² = 5e-14 N/cm²
Example 2:
To convert 12,500 fPa to N/cm²:
12,500 fPa = 12,500 × 1e-15 N/m² = 1.25e-11 N/cm²
