2. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit)

   The pascal (Pa) or kilopascal (kPa) as a unit of pressure measurement is widely used throughout the world and has largely replaced the pounds per square inch (psi) unit, except in some countries that still use the imperial measurement system or the US customary system, including the United States.

   square meter (m 2) differential element of volume V enclosed by surface S: cubic meter (m 3) electric field: newton per coulomb (N⋅C −1), or equivalently, volt per meter (V⋅m −1) energy: joule (J) Young's modulus: pascal (Pa) or newton per square meter (N/m 2) eccentricity

   The joule is dimensionally equivalent to the units of torque and moment of force but should be used in preference to the newton metre (N·m). Power: P: watt: W 1 W = 1 J/s = 1 N·m/s = 1 kg·m 2 /s 3: Unit named after James Watt. Pressure: p: pascal: Pa 1 Pa = 1 N / m 2 = 1 kg/(m·s 2) Named after Blaise Pascal. Normal stress, Shear stress

   Pressure per unit distance pascal/m L −2 M 1 T −2: vector Temperature gradient: steepest rate of temperature change at a particular location K/m L −1 Θ: vector Torque: τ: Product of a force and the perpendicular distance of the force from the point about which it is exerted newton-metre (N⋅m) L 2 M T −2

6. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Pressure regulator for domestic water supply. Outlet pressure is set with the blue handwheel and shown on the vertical scale. A water pressure regulating valve limits inflow by dynamically changing the valve opening so that when less pressure is on the outside, the valve opens up fully, and too much pressure on the outside causes the valve to shut.

7. Kilogram-force per square centimetre - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram-force_per_square...

   This use of the unit of pressure provides an intuitive understanding for how a body's mass, in contexts with roughly standard gravity, can apply force to a scale's surface area, i.e. kilogram-force per square (centi-)metre. In SI units, the unit is converted to the SI derived unit pascal (Pa), which is defined as one newton per square metre (N ...
