What does ksi measure?

Ksi measures pressure or engineering stress, defined as 1,000 pounds-force per square inch, commonly used in materials and structural engineering.

What is an exapascal used for?

Exapascal is used to express extremely large pressures encountered in astrophysics, planetary science, and high-energy physics.

Why are conversions from ksi to exapascal so small?

Because exapascal is an extraordinarily large pressure unit, typical ksi pressures convert to very small fractional exapascal values.
