Bars to Gigapascals
Convert bars (bar) to gigapascals (GPa) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
bar
GPa
1 bar = 0.0001 GPa
Full precision:0.0001 GPa
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 bars to gigapascals, we divide by 10000 because one gigapascal equals exactly 10000 bars.
1 gigapascal = 10000 bars
Since there are 10000 bars in every gigapascal, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 10000 = 0.0001 gigapascals
So 1 bars = 0.0001 gigapascals.
Quick check: 0.0001 × 10000 = 1 bars
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 bar = 0.0001 GPa
1 ÷ 10000 = 0.0001
1 ÷ 10000 = 0.0001
Example 2: 5 bar = 0.0005 GPa
5 ÷ 10000 = 0.0005
5 ÷ 10000 = 0.0005
Example 3: 10 bar = 0.001 GPa
10 ÷ 10000 = 0.001
10 ÷ 10000 = 0.001
