Unit of atmospheric pressure named in honor of Blaise Pascal (1632-1662), whose experiments greatly increased knowledge of the atmosphere A Pascal is the force of one Newton acting on a surface area of one square meter It is the unit of pressure designated by the International System 100,000 Pa = 1000 mb = 1 bar See atmospheric pressure, millibar
a programing language designed to teach programming through a top-down modular approach French mathematician and philosopher and Jansenist; invented an adding machine; contributed (with Fermat) to the theory of probability (1623-1662) a unit of pressure equal to one newton per square meter
SI unit of pressure defined as the pressure which applied on a plane area of one square metre, exerts perpendicularly at this surface a total force of one newton
A pascal is the standard unit of pressure 1 pascal is equal to a force of 1 newton applied to an area of 1 square metre
A high-level programming language that is structured to encourage efficient programming habits (documentation) and is used extensively in educational institutions and engineering environments
