The conversion will depend on the substance you are trying to convert (water, oil etc.) and it's often done in one unit of area (1 square metre area)
We know:
Pressure = Force / square area
and Pa = N/m2
with N = mass x acceleration of gravity
Let's say the substance is water, with a density of 1000 kg/m3
and we're doing a 1m2 of water area with H (head/height of water).
Therefore,
Force = 1000 kg/m3 x [1m2 x H m] x 9.81m/s2 = 9810 kg.m/s2 (or N, Newton)
1 Pascal = 1 N/m2 or (9810xH) N/m2
Rearranging the above, you get H (head of water) = 1 / 9810
or 1 Pa is equivalent to approximately 0.0001m of water at the normal density
Conclusion:
1 Pa = 0.0001m of head (water at room temperature)
1 kPa = 0.1m of head (water at room temperature)

What is the water pressure at 25 meters?
It's exactly 25 meters. If you want to convert it to another unit, please clarify your question for us by giving the other unit.
Convert 10m head pressure of water to psi?
10 m of water = 14 psi 1 m of water = 1.4 psi There is more to this... it should be as follows Pressure (P) = density of fluid (p)* gravity (g) * height of fluid (h) for example: p= ~1000 kg/m^3 (water at 20 deg C) g= ~9.81 m/s^2 (at sea level) h= 10 m of water Therefore: P=1000*9.81*10 P=~98,100 pascals (pa) = 98.1 kpa = 14.2 psi
What is a MPascal?
A unit of pressure. One Pascal (Pa) is 1 N/m. One MPa is one million pascals.
What force is exerted on an object in with an area 2.5 M squared if the pressure is 99500 PA?
99500 x 2.5 = 248,750 Newtons
Find the problem of sound pressure in Pascals associated with 92dB SPL?
Is there a problem? Reference sound pressure po = 20 µPa = 2×10^−5 Pa (Threshold of hearing). Reference sound pressure level Lpo = 0 dB-SPL (Threshold of hearing level). Get sound pressure p when entering sound pressure level Lp = 92 decibel (dB). Sound pressure p = po×10^(Lp/20) Pa (= N/m²) = 2×10^−5×10^(92/20) Pa = 0.796 Pa.
How much pressure is exerted on a swimmer at the bottom of a 5.0 m deep swimming pool?
Hydrostatic pressure is (density of the fluid)(gravitational acceleration)(height of the water head). The density of water is 1 g/cm^3 Acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2 The water head is just the height above the object that you are measuring the pressure on, so here it is 10 m =(1 g/cm^3)(10^6 cm^3/1 m^3)*(9.81 m/s^2)*(10 m) => always be sure to convert units to be the same so that they cancel out! = 9.81*10^7 -or- 98100 Pa (a pascal (Pa) is the measure of pressure in the S.I. system and equals (kg)/(m)(s^2)). Hope that helps!

Abox 5m long 2 m wide and 2m high applies 12 Pa of pressure to the table that it is resting on how much froce does the box?
The S.I. Units of Pascals(Pa) are kg m s^-2 m^-2 We need to find the area (m^-2) of the box resting on the table. Since it is 5 m long and 2 m wide then the area resting on the table is 10 m^2 Since the pressure is 12 Pa Then 12 Pa = kgms^-2 /10 m^2 This becomes 12 Pa x 10 m^2 = F(kg m s^-2 F = 120 kg m s^-2
What is the unit for sound pressure?
Sound pressure is force divided by area (p = F / A) and has the unit N / m² or pascal (Pa).

How is pressure expressed mathematically?
Pressure = Force normal to the surface per unit surface area The SI unit for pressure is N/m^2
What Static pressure for the head pressure in length in meters?
Your question is not clear. Static pressure in metres head converts to kilopascals: one metre of head is 10 kPa, 10 m is 100 kPa, and so on.
Convert 10m head pressure of water to psi?
10 m of water = 14 psi 1 m of water = 1.4 psi There is more to this... it should be as follows Pressure (P) = density of fluid (p)* gravity (g) * height of fluid (h) for example: p= ~1000 kg/m^3 (water at 20 deg C) g= ~9.81 m/s^2 (at sea level) h= 10 m of water Therefore: P=1000*9.81*10 P=~98,100 pascals (pa) = 98.1 kpa = 14.2 psi
State how the pressure in liquid depens on the depth of the liquid?
Density of liquid (kg/m3) * gravitational constant (m/s2) * depth (m) = (extra) pressure under liquid (Pa) Density of water = 998 (kg/m3) gravitational constant = 9.81 (m/s2) 1,000 ATM = 1.013*10-5 Pa Raw formula: pressure under water = 1 (ATM) per 10 (m) depth
How can you convert 20 tons per meter square into Mega pascal?
I think this is the correct way to convert 20 tons/m2 to M Pa:(20 tonf/m2) * (2000 lbf / 1 tonf)*(4.4482 N/ 1 lbf)177928 N/m21 N/m2 = 1 Pa, so in order to find Mega Pascals divide by 1 million0.177928 M Pa
Does Pa mean Pounds of Pressure?
Pa is an SI (metric) unit of pressure. 1 Pa - 1 kg/(m-s2) or 1 N/m2. N is Newton, which is 1 kg m/s2. English units of pressure can be psi (pounds per square inch, or lbs/in2), psf (pounds per square foot, lbs/ft2) , or some other unit of force divided by an area. Pascal (unit)
What is a MPascal?
A unit of pressure. One Pascal (Pa) is 1 N/m. One MPa is one million pascals.
