What is a Pascal?

The Pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure. It is defined as one newton per square meter. It is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal.

What is a Gigapascal?

The Gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one billion pascals. It is used in geophysics to measure pressures deep within the Earth.

How to Convert Pascal to Gigapascal

To convert Pascal to Gigapascal, multiply the Pascal value by 1e-9.

GPa = Pa × 1e-9
