What is Pressure?
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to a surface per unit area: P = F / A. The SI unit is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (1 Pa = 1 N/m²). Practical applications use larger units: the bar (1 bar = 100,000 Pa, close to standard atmospheric pressure), atmosphere (atm) (1 atm = 101,325 Pa), and psi (pounds per square inch, used in the US for tire and gas pressures). Blood pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury), also called torr.
What is Centimeter of Mercury?
The centimeter of mercury (symbol: cmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of mercury under standard gravity. It has traditionally been used in scientific instruments, laboratory measurements, and vacuum systems. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the centimeter of mercury is still encountered in specialized applications. It is closely related to the Torr and other mercury-based pressure units.
One centimeter of mercury is equal to 1,333.22 pascals, 10 millimeters of mercury, 0.0133322 bar, 0.193367 psi, and 0.0131579 standard atmosphere. This unit remains useful for comparing pressure values in traditional measurement systems.
What is Megapascal?
The megapascal (symbol: MPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one million (106) pascals. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, hydraulics, and material science. The megapascal is commonly used to express concrete compressive strength, steel yield strength, hydraulic pressure, and industrial operating pressures. It uses the SI prefix mega, representing a factor of one million.
One megapascal is equal to 1,000,000 pascals, 1,000 kilopascals, 0.001 gigapascal, 10 bars, and 145.038 pounds per square inch. The megapascal is the preferred SI unit for reporting engineering pressures and material properties.
