Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between pascals and kilopascals.
What is a pascal (Pa)?
A pascal is a unit of Pressure in the International System of Units (SI). The symbol for pascal is Pa. There are 1,000 pascals in a kilopascal.
What is a kilopascal (kPa)?
A kilopascal is a unit of Pressure in the International System of Units (SI). The symbol for kilopascal is kPa. There are 0.001 kilopascals in a pascal.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from Pa to kPa is:
kPa = Pa ÷ 1,000
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from pascals to kilopascals (Pa to kPa).
Pascal to Kilopascal Conversion Example
Task: Convert 500 pascals to kilopascals (show work) Formula: Pa ÷ 1,000 = kPa Calculations: 500 Pa ÷ 1,000 = 0.5 kPa Result: 500 Pa is equal to 0.5 kPa
