Kilopascal (abbreviations: kPa, or kN/m2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is one kilonewton per square meter. It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.
Kilogram Per Centimeter Cube (abbreviations: kg/cm2, or kgpcm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of kilogram per centimeter cube.
How to Convert Kilopascals to Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube
Example: How many kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 16.23 kilopascals?
As;
1 kilopascals = 0.0102 kilograms per centimeters cube
16.23 kilopascals = Y kilograms per centimeters cube
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 16.23 times 0.0102 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 16.23 * 0.0102 / 1 = 0.165546 kilograms per centimeters cube
Answer is: 0.165546 kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 16.23 kilopascals.
