Understanding Pressure Conversion
What is a Hectopascal (hPa)?
A hectopascal is a unit of pressure equal to 100 pascals or 1 millibar. It's commonly used in meteorology for measuring atmospheric pressure. One hectopascal represents the force of one newton applied over one square meter.
What is a Torr?
A torr is a non-SI unit of pressure named after Evangelista Torricelli. One torr is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. It's frequently used in vacuum technology and scientific measurements.
Conversion Formula
To convert from hectopascals to torr, multiply the pressure value by 0.750062:
Torr = Hectopascals × 0.750062
