1. The pascal is the SI unit for pressure and can be expressed in terms of other SI base units as 1 N/m^2 or newtons per square meter. 2. Common pressure units like the bar, atmosphere, torr, and psi are defined in terms of pascals, with conversions shown between each unit. 3. For example, 1 Pa equals 10^-5 bar, 10.197×10^-6 at, 9.8692×10^-6 atm, 7.5006×10^-3 torr, and 145.04×10^-6 psi.
