Pound/Square Inch

The pound per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure commonly used in the United States. It is defined as the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. 1 psi = 6894.757 Pa.

Origin:

The psi unit is derived from the imperial system of units, which was historically used in the United Kingdom and is still used in the United States. It is widely used in various applications, including tire pressure, hydraulic systems, and atmospheric pressure measurements.

Kilopascal

The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It is equal to 1,000 pascals (Pa). Since the pascal is defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²), the kilopascal represents a pressure of 1,000 N/m². It is commonly used to measure pressure in applications like weather (atmospheric pressure), engineering (tire pressure, material strength), and medicine (blood pressure). 1 kPa = 1,000 Pa = 1,000 N/m².

Origin:

The kilopascal derives from the pascal (Pa), which is named after Blaise Pascal (1623–1662), a French mathematician and physicist known for his work in fluid mechanics and pressure. The prefix "kilo-" comes from the Greek word chilioi, meaning a thousand, and is a standard SI prefix denoting a factor of 1,000. The kilopascal is widely used because it is a convenient unit for measuring pressures in the moderate range, where the pascal alone might result in very large numbers.
