What are Dekapascal and Centipascal

A Dekapascal, denoted as daPa, is a metric unit of pressure equal to ten Pascals. It is a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) used to quantify internal pressure, mechanical stress, and tensile strength. This unit finds its applications in various scientific and engineering fields, where moderate pressure measurements are required.

The Centipascal, symbolized as cPa, is a unit of pressure in the metric system and is equivalent to one hundredth of a Pascal. Representing a very small amount of pressure, it is commonly used in scientific laboratories and calculations where precision is vital and the pressure involved is minimal.
