The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is defined as one newton per square metre.
kilopascals
The kilopascal is a multiple of the unit bit for Pressure. The prefix kilo (symbol k) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 10 × 102 (1 thousand, short scale), and therefore 1 kilopascal = 10 × 102 pascals = 1000 pascals. The kilopascal has the unit symbol kPa.
