What are Kilonewton per square meter and Dekapascal

Definition of Kilonewton per square meter

Kilonewton per square meter (kN/m²) is a metric unit of pressure. It represents the amount of force of one kilonewton applied over an area of one square meter. This unit is commonly used in engineering and construction to measure stresses in materials and structural elements.

Definition of Dekapascal

Dekapascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to ten pascals. It's a less commonly used unit but serves as a bridge between the pascal and higher units of pressure, like the kilopascal (kPa), in measuring atmospheric pressure, stresses in materials, and more.
