What are Pound-force square Inch and Micropascal

Definition of Pound-force square Inch

A Pound-force per Square Inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the Imperial system. It measures the force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. Commonly used in the United States, psi is a standard unit for measuring pressure in various applications, including automotive tire pressure, scuba tank pressure, and more.

Definition of Micropascal

A Micropascal (µPa) is a metric unit of pressure equal to one millionth of a Pascal. Since a Pascal is a relatively small unit, the Micropascal allows for the measurement of extremely low pressures. It is commonly used in scientific research and engineering to measure stress, sound pressure levels, and minute atmospheric changes.
