What are Kilopascal and Centimeter

Definition of Kilopascal

The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure defined as one thousand pascals. It is a metric unit that is widely used in science and engineering to measure pressure or stress. The pascal is the SI derived unit of pressure, and thus the kilopascal represents a significant value for various applications where moderate levels of pressure are discussed.

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter (cm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-hundredth of a meter. It is a common unit of measurement for everyday objects and is used to describe the dimensions of items ranging from furniture to paper sizes. The centimeter allows for precise measurements in a scale that is easy to understand and apply in various contexts.
