What is Pascal?

The pascal is the SI unit of pressure, defined as one newton of force per square meter. Named after French mathematician and physicist Blaise Pascal, it is the foundation for related units like the hectopascal used in weather reports. Since one pascal is a very small amount of pressure, practical applications typically use kilopascals (kPa) or megapascals (MPa). In materials engineering, stress and tensile strength are expressed in megapascals or gigapascals.

What is Atmosphere?

The standard atmosphere is a unit of pressure defined as exactly 101,325 pascals. It approximates the average atmospheric pressure at sea level on Earth. In diving, pressure increases by roughly 1 atm for every 10 meters of water depth, so at 30 meters the total pressure is about 4 atm. In chemistry, standard conditions for gases are defined at 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atm, making it a fundamental reference in thermodynamics and gas law calculations.
