What are Hectopascal and Ton-force

A hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure defined as 100 pascals. It is a standard unit for measuring atmospheric pressure and is equivalent to one millibar. Hectopascals are commonly used in meteorology and for weather forecasts to describe the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere.

A ton-force, long per square inch (tonf/in²), is a unit of pressure representing the force of one long ton (2,240 pounds or approximately 1,016 kilograms) exerted over an area of one square inch. It is an imperial measurement commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom.
