What are Gigapascal and Microbar

Definition of Gigapascal

A gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure within the metric system equal to one billion pascals. This unit measures immense pressure levels and is commonly used in scientific contexts, including materials science and engineering, to express the stress within a material or the pressure of a system.

Definition of Microbar

A microbar (µbar) is a metric unit of pressure that is equivalent to one millionth of a bar or 0.1 pascals. It's used for measuring small differences in air pressure and is commonly applied in meteorology and in various scientific research areas where precise pressure measurements are required.

Conversion of Gigapascal to Microbar

1 GPa = 10,000,000 µbar
1 µbar = 0.0000001 GPa

Example 1:
Convert 0.02 GPa to µbar:
0.02 GPa = 0.02 × 10,000,000 µbar = 200,000,000 µbar

Example 2:
Convert 0.05 GPa to µbar:
0.05 GPa = 0.05 × 10,000,000 µbar = 500,000,000 µbar
