What is the SI unit for measuring pressure?

Watt
Joule
Pascal
Kelvin

The correct answer is: Pascal

The SI unit for measuring pressure is the Pascal. A Watt is a unit for measuring power, which is defined as the rate of doing work. A Joule is a unit for measuring energy, which is the ability to do work. A Kelvin is a unit for measuring temperature, which is the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance. These units are all related, but they are not equivalent to measuring pressure, which is the amount of force applied to a specific area. Therefore, they are not the correct answer for this question. The correct answer is the Pascal, which is defined as 1 newton per square meter.
