What are Atmosphere and Kilopascal

The term 'Atmosphere' refers to a unit of pressure defined as being equivalent to the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter-high column of mercury at the Earth's surface at 0°C. Historically, this unit was intended to represent the average atmospheric pressure at sea level. It is commonly used in meteorology, oceanography, and various industrial applications to measure pressures.

A Kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure within the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to one thousand Pascals, where a Pascal is defined as one Newton per square meter. The Kilopascal is commonly used in fields such as engineering, construction, and meteorology to express pressures, stresses, and tensile strengths in a wide range of contexts.
