A
temperature
B
heat
C
atmospheric pressure
D
current
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly equal to 100, 000 Pa (100 kPa ), or slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level (approximately 1.013 bar).

Detailed explanation-2: -The bar is a unit of pressure, equal to 100, 000 Pa. The bar is not an SI unit, but is accepted for use with SI by BIPM-The International Bureau of Weights and Measures. The bar is convenient as it is quite close to the value of the standard atmosphere (1.01325 bar).

Detailed explanation-3: -A bar is a pressure unit defined as 100 kilopascals. This makes one atmosphere nearly equal to one bar, specifically: 1 atm = 1.01325 bar.
