What are Newton and Hectopascal

The Newton, named after Sir Isaac Newton, is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is defined as the force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one meter per second squared. One Newton is equivalent to 1 kg·m/s². This unit quantifies the amount of force applied to an object to produce a change in its motion.

The Hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure defined as 100 pascals. It is a metric unit widely used in meteorology and for atmospheric pressure measurements. One hectopascal corresponds to the pressure exerted by a force of one Newton acting on an area of one square meter. The unit is equivalent to the more commonly known millibar (mbar), where 1 hPa equals 1 mbar.
