What is the conversion rate from newton/square centimeter to pascal?

One newton per square centimeter equals 10,000 pascals.

Why should I convert pressure units from newton/square centimeter to pascal?

Converting to pascal standardizes measurements, making them consistent for scientific, engineering, and industrial applications.

Can this conversion be used directly for non-uniform pressure fields?

No, the conversion assumes uniform pressure distribution and may not apply directly to variable pressure situations.
