Centipascal

A centipascal (cPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.01 pascals (Pa). A pascal is defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). The centipascal is used in various scientific and engineering contexts.

Origin:

The term "centipascal" combines the SI prefix "centi-", representing 0.01, and the unit "pascal," named after Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician and physicist known for his contributions to the study of pressure and fluid mechanics. The prefix "centi-" comes from the Latin word "centum," meaning "hundred." The centipascal is used in contexts where pressures are relatively low.

Hectopascal

A hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 100 pascals (Pa). A pascal is defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). The hectopascal is commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure.

Origin:

The term "hectopascal" combines the SI prefix "hecto-", representing 100, and the unit "pascal," named after Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician and physicist known for his contributions to the study of pressure and fluid mechanics. The prefix "hecto-" comes from the Greek word ἑκατόν (hekatón), meaning "hundred." The hectopascal is widely used in meteorology and other scientific fields.
