- Pressure: When the force applied is perpendicular to the surface of objects per unit area, we get pressure.
The pressure is calculated by:
P = F/A (Force per unit area)
where F is the force and A is the area.
- The unit of pressure is Pascal (Pa).
- The pressure is also measured in atm, bar, torr, etc.
Conversion:
1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 101325 Pa
1 torr pressure is equivalent to 1 mm of mercury (Hg)
