Pascal
Abbr. Pa A unit of pressure equal to one newton per square meter.
Maxwell
The unit of magnetic flux in the centimeter-gram-second system, equal to the flux perpendicularly intersecting an area of one square centimeter in a region where the magnetic intensity is one gauss.
Pascal
Pascal A programming language that was specially designed to support structured programming.
Maxwell
(physics) A unit of magnetic flux that produces one abvolt per turn per second.
Pascal
In the International System of Units, the derived unit of pressure and stress; one newton per square metre. Symbol: Pa.

Maxwell
A cgs unit of magnetic flux, abbreviated Mx; it is equal to the magnetic flux passing through one sqaure centimeter which is normal to a magnetic field of one gauss.
Pascal
A unit of pressure equal to one newton per square meter
Maxwell
A cgs unit of magnetic flux equal to the flux perpendicular to an area of 1 square centimeter in a magnetic field of 1 gauss
Pascal
French mathematician and philosopher and Jansenist; invented an adding machine; contributed (with Fermat) to the theory of probability (1623-1662)
Maxwell
Scottish physicist whose equations unified electricity and magnetism and who recognized the electromagnetic nature of light (1831-1879)
Pascal
A programing language designed to teach programming through a top-down modular approach
