Example Sentences
Scientists estimated these asteroids were held together by about 1 pascal—the pressure from a piece of paper resting on your hand.
Moreover, the technique measures pressure directly, using a fundamental constant of nature, meaning metrologists can derive the pascal without relying on previous measurements of other quantities, such as density, which the manometer depends on.
I am not as tender and benign as the pascal lamb.
"You have been absolved of those first crimes—as to them you are as white as the pascal lamb, but for the fresh crime of your brother's murder."
It commenced at evening, at the same time the pascal lamb was slain in the law, at which time according to the record, Jesus expired.”
