What are Centimeter and Decipascal

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter, abbreviated as cm, is a unit of length in the metric system. It equals one-hundredth of a meter, the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). Centimeters are widely used for everyday measurements and are an important unit of measurement in various fields such as engineering, construction, and tailoring.

Definition of Decipascal

The decipascal is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to one-tenth of a pascal. The pascal, symbolized by Pa, is the SI derived unit of pressure and represents a force of one newton per square meter. Decipascals are used for finer measurements of pressure where a pascal may be too large.
