How to Convert Pascals to Millibars
Converting pascals (Pa) to millibars (mbar) is a common conversion. One pascal is equal to 0.01 millibars.
Formula
Millibars = Pascals × 0.01
or
mbar = Pa × 0.01
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in pascals
- Multiply that number by 0.01
- The result is the equivalent amount in millibars
Examples
- 1 Pa = 0.01 mbar
- 100 Pa = 1 mbar
- 50 Pa = 0.5 mbar
