What are Nanopascal and Gigapascal

Definition of Nanopascal

A Nanopascal (nPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system that equals one billionth of a pascal. It's a very small measure of pressure often used in scientific contexts. The pascal is the SI derived unit for pressure, defined as one newton per square meter. Nanopascals are typically used in applications that require measuring extremely low-pressure values such as in certain areas of physics and engineering.

Definition of Gigapascal

A Gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) that is equal to one billion pascals. It represents a very high level of pressure and is commonly used in materials science and engineering to describe the tensile strength or modulus of elasticity of materials. The gigapascal is often used in studies involving high-pressure conditions, such as those found deep within the Earth's crust or in the analysis of shockwave propagation.

100,000,000,000 nPa 1.0e-4 GPa
1,000,000,000,000 nPa 1.0e-3 GPa

Conversion of Nanopascal to Gigapascal

1 nPa = 1e-12 GPa
1 GPa = 1e12 nPa

Example 1:
Convert 500 nPa to GPa:
500 nPa = 500 × 1e-12 GPa = 5e-10 GPa

Example 2:
Convert 2,000,000 nPa to GPa:
2,000,000 nPa = 2,000,000 × 1e-12 GPa = 2e-6 GPa
