What are Kilogram-force sq. Cm and Centimeter Water 4 Degree Celsius

Definition of Kilogram-force sq. Cm

Kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure. It represents the pressure exerted by one kilogram-force acting on an area of one square centimeter. This unit is part of the metric system and is commonly used in various engineering fields. Its importance lies in its ability to quantify force over a specific area, playing a crucial role in stress and pressure calculations.

Definition of Centimeter Water 4 Degree Celsius

Centimeter of Water at 4 degrees Celsius (cm H2O) is a unit of pressure. It is defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of one centimeter in height at the temperature of 4°C, where water reaches its maximum density. This unit is commonly used in meteorology, medicine, and engineering to measure small pressure differences.
