Frequently Asked Questions
What is pressure?
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed. It quantifies how concentrated a force is.
Why are there different pressure units?
Different pressure units are used in various fields (e.g., meteorology, engineering, medicine) and regions, reflecting historical practices or convenience for specific ranges of pressure.
What is the SI unit for pressure?
The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa), defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²).
What are some common pressure units?
Common pressure units include Pascal (Pa), bar, millibar (mbar), pounds per square inch (psi), atmosphere (atm), and Torr (mmHg).
What is atmospheric pressure?
Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the weight of the air in the Earth's atmosphere. Standard atmospheric pressure is approximately 101325 Pa or 1 atm.
How can I convert between pressure units?
