WHAT DOES KILOPASCAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Pascal (unit)

The pascal is a measure of force per unit area, defined as one newton per square metre. It is the SI derived unit of pressure, internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and tensile strength. It is named after the French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer, and philosopher Blaise Pascal. Common multiple units of the pascal are the hectopascal which is equal to 1 mbar, the kilopascal, the megapascal, and the gigapascal. On Earth, standard atmospheric pressure is defined as 101.325 kPa. Meteorological barometric pressure reports typically report atmospheric pressure in hectopascals, corresponding to about 0.1% of atmospheric pressure. The main corresponding imperial and US customary unit is the pound per square inch; in the context of meteorology, the inch of mercury may also be encountered.
