- Illustration of Division:
- Centipascal = mmhg ÷ 0.000075006168270417
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 Millimeter of Mercury?
The millimeter of mercury (symbol: mmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of mercury under standard gravity. It is widely used in medicine, physiology, meteorology, and vacuum technology. Blood pressure is commonly measured in millimeters of mercury, making it one of the world's best-known pressure units. The unit is closely related to the Torr.
One millimeter of mercury is equal to 133.322 pascals, 0.133322 kilopascals, 0.00133322 bar, 0.0193368 pounds per square inch, and 0.00131579 standard atmosphere. The millimeter of mercury remains the standard unit for blood pressure measurements.
What is Centipascal?
The centipascal (symbol: cPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one-hundredth (0.01) of a pascal. It is used to express relatively small pressure values in scientific calculations, laboratory measurements, and engineering applications where greater precision than the pascal is required. The centipascal uses the SI prefix centi, representing a factor of one-hundredth.
One centipascal is equal to 0.01 pascal, 10 millipascals, 10,000 micropascals, 0.0000001 bar, and 9.86923×10-8 standard atmosphere. The centipascal provides a convenient way to represent small pressure values using SI units.
