Answer to Question 1

1 psi is a much larger unit of measurement. 1 psi is approximately equal to 7 kilopascals

Answer to Question 2

Bars are used in many pressure applications by countries on the SI system. 1 bar is approximately equal to atmospheric pressure. It is exactly equal to 100 kilopascals.

It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
