What are Inch and Bar

An 'inch' is a unit of length in the British imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. It equals 1/12 of a foot or 1/36 of a yard. Historically, an inch was also used as a standard unit in engineering and construction. Today, it is defined as 25.4 millimeters according to the international yard agreement of 1959.

A 'bar' is a metric unit of pressure but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly equal to 100,000 Pascals, which is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. The bar is commonly used in meteorology, oceanography, and geology, as well as for the pressure gauges and hydraulics industries.
