The pascal is a unit of measure of pressure. Pressure in one pascal is caused by the force equal to one newton influencing a surface of one square meter. Transfer pascals to kilograms of force, having used this definition.
Instruction
1. Convert the initial size of pressure into pascals (Pa) if it is specified in megapascals (MPa). It is known that in one megapascal 1,000,000 pascals. Let's say you need to transfer 3 megapascals to pascals, it will make: 3 MPa * 1,000,000 = 3,000,000 Pas.
2. Transfer pascals to kilograms of force, knowing characteristic of unit of pressure in the ratio with force unit (newton). One pascal corresponds to one newton on square meter. The derivative unit of measure of force is equal in newtons to 1 kg / (m/s²) where the m/s² is an acceleration of gravity. Its size equal of 9.81 m/s² is applied to calculations. Calculate the number of kilograms of force in one newton operating on one square meter with the acceleration equal to 9.81 m/s²: - 1 / 9.81 = 0.102 kilograms of force on square meter that corresponds to pressure of one pascal.
3. Increase the received figure by the number of pascals which you need to transfer to kilograms: 0.102 * 3,000,000 (Pas) = we will receive 306,000 (kg/m²). Thus, to pressure of 3 megapascals there correspond 306,000 kilograms of force on square meter. So quickly to transfer pascals to kilograms, increase pressure in pascals by coefficient 0.102. If you need to transfer pascals to kilograms of force on square centimeter, then pressure size in pascals to you it is necessary to increase by coefficient 0.0000102. In this example of pressure in 3 megapascals there correspond 30.6 kilograms of force on square centimeter (3,000,000 Pa * 0.0000102 = 30.6 kg/cm²).
