What are Newton square Meter and Centipascal

Definition of Newton square Meter

A Newton per square meter (N/m²) is the SI derived unit of pressure. It is defined as the pressure exerted by a force of one Newton acting uniformly over an area of one square meter. This unit fundamentally represents how much force is applied over a specific area and is commonly used in scientific contexts to express pressures such as atmospheric or hydraulic.

Definition of Centipascal

A Centipascal (cPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one hundredth of a Pascal, which is the SI derived unit for pressure. One Pascal is the pressure exerted by a force of one Newton applied over an area of one square meter. Thus, a Centipascal represents a much smaller pressure measurement, useful in fields where fine gradations of pressure need to be noted.
