What are Kilogram-force per square centimeter and Centimeter of mercury

Kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a metric unit of pressure where one kgf/cm² equals the pressure exerted by a one kilogram-force acting on a one square centimeter area. This unit is commonly used in engineering and physics to represent pressure in a variety of contexts, including material testing, hydraulic systems, and the tire pressure of vehicles.

A centimeter of mercury (cmHg) at 0 degrees Celsius is a unit of pressure measurement that equates to the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter-high column of mercury at 0 degrees Celsius. This unit is widely utilized in medicine, meteorology, and aviation, often for measuring blood pressure, atmospheric pressure, and other types of low-pressure readings.
