What are Newton square Centimeter and Kilonewton square Meter

Definition of Newton square Centimeter

Newton per square centimeter (N/cm²) is a unit of pressure. It is defined as the force of one Newton acting on an area of one square centimeter. This measurement is not commonly used in practice but serves as a bridge between the metric system's Pascal and the larger Kilonewton per square meter.

Definition of Kilonewton square Meter

Kilonewton per square meter (kN/m²) is a unit of pressure that represents a thousand Newtons acting over an area of one square meter. It's equivalent to 1,000 Pascals and is commonly used in engineering and construction to describe stresses within structures and materials.
