Unit Information

Millimeter mercury (0°C) (mmHg)

Definition

The millimeter of mercury (symbol: mmHg) is a manometric unit of pressure, formerly defined as the extra pressure generated by a column of mercury one millimeter high at 0°C. Today it is defined as exactly 1/760 of an atmosphere.

Current Use

mmHg is widely used in medicine for measuring blood pressure and in various fields involving vacuum measurements and weather reports.

Pascal (Pa)

Definition

The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength. It is defined as one newton per square meter.

Current Use

The pascal is widely used in science and engineering. However, for many everyday applications, it is a very small unit, so kilopascals (kPa) or megapascals (MPa) are more common.
