What are Dekapascal and Kip-force square Inch

The Dekapascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure within the metric system. It is equivalent to ten Pascals, which is the SI unit for pressure, named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal. One Pascal is defined as one Newton per square meter. Therefore, a Dekapascal represents ten Newtons per square meter.

A Kip-force per square inch (ksi) is a non-SI unit of pressure or stress. It is primarily used in the United States and is equal to 1000 pounds-force per square inch. Since one pound-force is defined as the force exerted by gravity on a pound-mass object, a Kip-force is thus 1000 times that force, distributed over one square inch of area.
