What are Centimeter and Femtopascal

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter, symbolized as cm, is a unit of length in the metric system. It is one-hundredth of a meter and is commonly used for everyday measurements. The centimeter is ideal for measuring smaller distances where the meter is too large, and the millimeter is too small. It is also widely used in various scientific and engineering applications.

Definition of Femtopascal

A femtopascal, denoted as fPa, represents a subunit of the pascal, which is the SI unit of pressure. One femtopascal is equal to 10^-15 pascals. It is an extremely small unit of pressure, often used in scientific research to measure very low pressures, such as those that occur in outer space or in high-precision scientific experiments.
