What are Bar and Kilonewton

Definition of Bar

The bar is a unit of pressure defined as 100 kilopascals. It is about equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. Originally, the bar was designed to align closely with the atmospheric pressure to provide a convenient reference for meteorologists and engineers.

Definition of Kilonewton

A kilonewton (kN) is a unit of force. It represents one thousand newtons, where a newton is the international unit of force required to accelerate one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared. The kilonewton is commonly used in engineering and physics for larger scales of force.
