   What is a pascal unit?

   • The unit, named after Blaise Pascal, is an SI coherent derived unitdefined as one newtonper square metre(N/m2). It is also equivalent to 10 barye(10 Ba) in the CGSsystem. Common multiple units of the pascal are the hectopascal (1 hPa = 100 Pa), which is equal to one millibar, and the kilopascal (1 kPa = 1000 Pa), which is equal to one centibar.
