What are Inch and Kilopascal

Definition of Inch

An inch is a unit of length in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Historically, it represented the width of a human thumb and is now standardized at 1/36 of a yard or 1/12 of a foot. The inch is commonly used in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Definition of Kilopascal

The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI). One kilopascal equals 1,000 pascals, which is the SI unit of pressure named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal. The kPa is commonly used globally for reporting air pressure, stress, and tensile strength, and is recognized as a standard unit for pressure measurements.
