What are Kilogram-force square centimeter and Kilopascal

A kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure expressed as the force of one kilogram (kg) acting on an area of one square centimeter.

The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure within the International System of Units (SI). It equates to one thousand pascals, where a pascal is the pressure exerted by a force of one newton acting on an area of one square meter.

History of Kilogram-force square centimeter and Kilopascal

The concept of converting between kgf/cm² and kPa arose with the need for standardized pressure units in science and engineering. The adoption of the International System of Units (SI) facilitated the widespread use of kPa, necessitating tools for conversion from traditional units like kgf/cm².
