What are Kilonewton square Meter and Centipascal

Definition of Kilonewton square Meter

A Kilonewton per square Meter (kN/m²) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one kilonewton applied over an area of one square meter. It is commonly used in engineering and construction fields as a measure of stress, internal pressure, or strength of materials and structural components.

Definition of Centipascal

A Centipascal (cPa) is a subunit of the Pascal, which is the SI derived unit of pressure. One Centipascal equates to one hundredth of a Pascal, and it is typically used for measuring small pressure differences in scientific experiments or in meteorological data.
