What are Hectopascal and Inch

A hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to 100 pascals. It is widely used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure, where one hPa equals the pressure exerted by a one-hectogram force applied over an area of one square meter.

An inch is a unit of length primarily used in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada. It is defined as 1/12 of a foot and is further subdivided into 16 smaller units known as sixteenths of an inch. An inch is equal to exactly 25.4 millimeters in the metric system.
