How to Convert Bars to Megapascals
To convert bars to megapascals, divide the value by 10.
The Formula
Megapascals = Bars ÷ 10
Key Fact
1 megapascal = 10 bars
Tip: To convert megapascals back to bars, multiply by 10.
Bar to MPa
Convert bars (bar) to megapascals (MPa) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
bar
MPa
1 bar = 0.1 MPa
Full precision:0.1 MPa
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 bars to megapascals, we divide by 10 because one megapascal equals exactly 10 bars.
1 megapascal = 10 bars
Since there are 10 bars in every megapascal, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 10 = 0.1 megapascals
So 1 bars = 0.1 megapascals.
Quick check: 0.1 × 10 = 1 bars
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 bar = 0.1 MPa
1 ÷ 10 = 0.1
1 ÷ 10 = 0.1
Example 2: 5 bar = 0.5 MPa
5 ÷ 10 = 0.5
5 ÷ 10 = 0.5
Example 3: 10 bar = 1 MPa
10 ÷ 10 = 1
10 ÷ 10 = 1
