What are Kilopascal and Kilogram-force/square meter

A kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure defined as one thousand pascals. The pascal is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit for pressure and is equivalent to one newton per square meter. Pressure, in this context, is the amount of force being applied to an area. The kilopascal is commonly used in engineering and scientific contexts, as it offers a more manageable figure than the pascal for many real-world applications.

A kilogram-force per square meter (kgf/m²) is a unit of pressure where one kgf/m² is the pressure exerted by one kilogram-force being applied to an area of one square meter. This unit is not a part of the International System of Units (SI) but is still used in some contexts. The kilogram-force, or kilopond, is the gravitational force exerted by a one-kilogram mass under standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
