What are Pound-force square Foot and Femtopascal

Definition of Pound-force square Foot

A Pound-force square Foot (psf) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square foot. It is primarily used in the United States for measuring pressures in a variety of contexts, such as wind loads on structures and material strengths.

Definition of Femtopascal

A Femtopascal (fPa) is a metric unit of pressure equal to one quadrillionth (10^-15) of a pascal. It's a very small pressure unit used in scientific research to measure extremely low pressures, such as those in outer space or in advanced material sciences.
