What are Millibar and Kilogram-force per square meter

Definition of Millibar

A millibar is a unit of pressure defined as one-thousandth of a bar, which is a metric unit for pressure. It is not part of the International System of Units (SI), but it is widely used in meteorology and geophysics. One millibar equals 100 pascals or one hectopascal, which are SI units for pressure.

Definition of Kilogram-force per square meter

Kilogram-force per square meter (kgf/m²) is a unit of pressure where one kilogram-force is applied to an area of one square meter. This unit is not an SI unit but is commonly used in some fields. It is equivalent to 9.80665 pascals, the standard value of gravitational acceleration on Earth.
