What are Dekapascal and Ton-force

Definition of Dekapascal

A Dekapascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure equal to ten Pascals. Pascals are the SI units for pressure, defined as one newton per square meter. The Dekapascal, therefore, represents ten newtons per square meter, often used in meteorology and for surface pressure measurements.

Definition of Ton-force

Ton-force (short) per square foot is a unit of pressure where one unit represents the pressure exerted by a short ton-force, equivalent to 2000 pounds-force, distributed over one square foot of area. It's commonly used in the United States for industrial pressure measurements.
