There are several E.g. Ton(uk) Newton etc.
Answer:
Pressure units usually are expressed as a force per unit area. This is not always apparent as the "atmosphere" for example can be expressed as mm Hg, bars, Pascals etc. but these all relare to the pressure of the atmosphere on surface of the Earth. The Imperial system (once used in Briatain) and presently used in America has the following pressure units:
- atmosphere (atm)
- inch and foot of water
- pound/square inch
- kip/square inch
- ton-force (short)/unit area
- ton-force (long)/unit area
- pound-force/unit area
- ounce-force/unit area
- poundal per square inch
- bar, decibar, millibar
