How to Convert hectopascal to hectopascalhectopascal
1 hPa = 1 hPa
1 hPa = 1 hPa
Example: convert 60 hPa to hPa:
60 hPa = 60 x 1 = 60 hPa
hectopascal
Definition: The hectopascal (symbol: hPa) is a multiple of the pascal, which is the SI unit of pressure. One hPa is equal to 100 pascals.
History/origin: The hectopascal was introduced as a replacement for the millibar (mbar) in meteorology. The change was intended to promote the use of SI units.
Current use: Hectopascals are primarily used in meteorology for measuring atmospheric pressure. 1 hPa is equivalent to 1 mbar, which was previously the standard unit for atmospheric pressure.
