What are Kilopascal and Decipascal

Definition of Kilopascal

A kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure within the International System of Units (SI). One kPa equals 1,000 pascals, the standard unit of pressure defined as one newton per square meter. Kilopascals are commonly used in engineering and meteorology to measure stress, young's modulus, tensile strength, and atmospheric pressure.

Definition of Decipascal

A decipascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. One decipascal is equivalent to one-tenth of a pascal, the SI derived unit for pressure. While not as commonly used as kilopascals, decipascals provide a finer scale of measurement for small pressures and are used in fields where precision is key.
