Common multiple units of the pascal are the '''hectopascal''' (1&nbsp;'''hPa''' ≡ 100&nbsp;Pa), '''kilopascal''' (1&nbsp;'''kPa''' ≡ 1000&nbsp;Pa), '''megapascal''' (1&nbsp;'''MPa''' ≡ 1,000,000&nbsp;Pa), and '''gigapascal''' (1&nbsp;'''GPa''' ≡ 1,000,000,000&nbsp;Pa).

== Definition ==
The pascal can be expressed using [[SI derived unit]]s, or alternatively solely [[SI base unit]]s, as:
:<math>{\rm 1~Pa = 1~\frac{N}{m^2} = 1~\frac{kg}{m \cdot s^2}}</math><ref>[http://www.bipm.org/en/si/si_brochure/chapter2/2-2/table3.html Table 3 (Section 2.2.2)], ''SI Brochure'', [[International Bureau of Weights and Measures]]</ref>
Where '''N''' is the [[Newton (unit)|newton]], '''m''' is the [[metre]], '''kg''' is the [[kilogram]] and '''s''' is the [[second]].

=== Origin ===
The unit is named after [[Blaise Pascal]], the eminent French [[mathematician]], [[physicist]], and philosopher noted for his experiments with a [[barometer]], an instrument to measure [[air pressure]]. The name '''pascal''' was adopted for the [[SI]] unit [[Newton (unit)|newton]] per square metre (N/m<sup>2</sup>) by the 14th [[CGPM]] in 1971.<ref>[http://www.bipm.fr/en/convention/cgpm/14/pascal-siemens.html bipm.fr]</ref>

In 1985 the [[IUPAC]] recommended that the standard for atmospheric pressure should be harmonized to 100,000&nbsp;Pa = 1&nbsp;[[bar (unit)|bar]] ≈ 750.06&nbsp;[[Torr]]. The same definition is used in the compressor and the pneumatic tool industries (ISO 2787).
 
The [[Unicode]] computer character set has dedicated symbols {{Unicode|㎩}} ({{U+|33A9}}) for Pa and {{Unicode|㎪}} ({{U+|33AA}}) for kPa, but these exist merely for backward-compatibility with some older ideographic character-sets and are therefore [[deprecate]]d.
 
== Uses ==
The pascal (Pa) or kilopascal (kPa) as a unit of pressure measurement is widely used throughout the world and has largely replaced the [[pounds per square inch]] (psi) unit, except in some countries that still use the [[Imperial measurement system]], including the [[United States of America|United States]].
 
[[Tectonophysics|Tectonophysicists]] use the gigapascal (GPa) in measuring or calculating tectonic forces within the earth.
 
Transient [[elastography]] (FibroScan), a non-invasive method for estimating the extent of liver fibrosis, measures liver stiffness in kilopascals.
 
In [[materials science]], megapascals (MPa = [[Newton (unit)|N]]/mm<sup>2</sup>) or gigapascals (GPa = kN/mm<sup>2</sup>) are commonly used to measure [[Young's modulus|stiffness]] or [[tensile strength]] of materials. Examples of (approximate) Young’s moduli for several common substances (in gigapascals) include [[nylon]] at 2–4; [[hemp]] (fibre) at 58, [[aluminium]] at 69; [[tooth enamel]] at 83, [[copper]] at 117, [[steel]] at approximately 200,  and [[diamond]] at 1220.
 
The pascal is also equivalent to the SI unit of [[energy density]], J/m<sup>3</sup>. This applies not only to the thermodynamics of pressurized gasses, but also to the energy density of [[electric potential energy|electric]], [[magnetic field#Energy stored in magnetic fields|magnetic]], and [[gravitational energy|gravitational]] fields.
 
Other, older units of measure occasionally used for pressure are [[millimeters of mercury]] ([[Torr]]) and millimetres of water (1.0&nbsp;mmH<sub>2</sub>O = 9.80665&nbsp;Pa).
 
In the [[centimetre-gram-second system of units|cgs system]], the unit of pressure is the [[barye]] (symbol '''ba'''), which is equal to one [[deci-|deci]]pascal. The older kilogram-force per square centimetre corresponds to 98.0665&nbsp;kPa,<ref>SensorsOne, [http://www.sensorsone.co.uk/pressure-units-conversion.html Pressure unit conversion and converter]. 2010.03.22.</ref> but is it often rounded off to 100&nbsp;kPa in practice.
 
In the former [[metre-tonne-second system of units|mts system]], the unit of pressure is the [[pièze]] (symbol '''pz'''), which is equal to one kilopascal.
 
[[Blower door|Airtightness testing of buildings]] is measured at 50&nbsp;Pa or 0.2&nbsp;inches of water.<ref>{{cite web

===Hectopascal and millibar units===
{{main|Bar (unit)}}
[[Meteorologists]] worldwide have for a long time measured atmospheric pressure in [[Bar (unit)|bars]], which was originally equivalent to the average air pressure on Earth; the bar was divided into a thousand millibars to provide the precision meteorologists require. After the introduction of [[SI units]], many preferred to preserve the customary pressure figures. Consequently, the bar was redefined as 100,000 pascals, which is only slightly lower than standard air pressure on Earth. Today many meteorologists prefer hectopascals (hPa) for air pressure, which are equivalent to millibars, while similar pressures are given in kilopascals in practically all other fields, since the [[Hecto-|hecto]] prefix is rarely used. Since official [[metrication]], meteorologists in Canada use kilopascals (kPa),<ref>[http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/HTMLTemplate/!ctvDynNews/Weather/Weather?City=Montreal CTV News, weather; current conditions in Montreal]</ref><ref>[http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/qc-147_metric_e.html Environment Canada weather, current conditions in Montreal]</ref> although in some other countries hectopascals are still in use.<ref>[http://www.knmi.nl/actueel/ KNMI]</ref><ref>[http://www.kmi.be/nederlands/index.php?menu=Menu1_3 KMI]</ref><ref>[http://www.dwd.de/de/WundK/W_aktuell/Beobachtungen.htm DWD]</ref><ref>[http://www.jma.go.jp/en/g3/index.html JMA]</ref><ref>[http://www.meteoam.it/modules.php?name=analisiPrevisioniSuolo MDD]</ref><ref>[http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/KDCA.html NOAA]</ref><ref>[http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/guide/weather/symbols#units UK Met Office]</ref>
 
As of 17 November 2011 the hectopascal is used in aviation as the altimeter setting.  
 
:1&nbsp;hectopascal (hPa) ≡ 100&nbsp;Pa ≡ 1&nbsp;mbar.
:1&nbsp;kilopascal (kPa) ≡ 1000&nbsp;Pa ≡ 10&nbsp;hPa ≡ 10&nbsp;mbar.
