What are Centipascal and Dyne per square centimeter

Definition of Centipascal

A centipascal (cp) is a unit of pressure defined as one hundredth of a pascal, which is the SI unit of pressure. One centipascal equals 0.01 pascals and represents a very small amount of pressure, commonly used in scientific contexts.

Definition of Dyne per square centimeter

A dyne per square centimeter (dyn/cm²) is a unit of pressure in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. It measures the amount of force in dynes applied over one square centimeter of area. This unit is often used in physics and engineering.
