What are Bar and Ton-force

A 'bar' is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to 100,000 Pascals. It is roughly comparable to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. Although not an SI unit, the bar is widely used in scientific and engineering fields due to its simplicity and convenience for measuring medium to high pressures.

Ton-force, often simply called 'ton', is a unit of force. It is defined as the force exerted by one short ton (2,000 pounds) under the influence of standard gravity (9.80665 meters per second squared). It is a traditional and non-SI unit of force commonly used in the United States.

History of Bar and Ton-force
