What are Kilonewton square Meter and Standard Atmosphere

Definition of Kilonewton square Meter

Kilonewton per square meter (kN/m²) is a unit of pressure. One kilonewton per square meter is equivalent to the pressure exerted by a one kilonewton force applied to a one square meter area. This unit is a part of the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in engineering and construction industries to measure stress, tensile strength, and material resistance.

Definition of Standard Atmosphere

The Standard Atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as being precisely equivalent to 101,325 Pascal (Pa). It is a standardized representation of atmospheric pressure at sea level and serves as a reference point for gauging different pressure levels. The term 'Standard Atmosphere' can also refer to a specific model of the Earth's atmosphere that is used in aeronautics, engineering, and meteorology to predict weather patterns, design aircraft, and calibrate instruments.
