What are Inch Mercury 32 Degree Fahrenheit and Kip-force square Inch

Inch Mercury 32 Degree Fahrenheit (inHg 32 °F) is a unit of pressure measurement. It represents the pressure exerted by a one-inch column of mercury at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This unit is often used in meteorology for barometric readings and in aviation for altitude and atmospheric pressure readings.

Kip-force per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure that measures thousands of pounds of force per square inch. It's a common unit used in engineering and construction to describe the strength of materials, including their tensile and yield strength. The kip is equivalent to 1,000 pounds-force, making ksi a representation of substantial force over a square inch area.
