Understanding Pascal and Torr Units
What is a Pascal (Pa)?
The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit for pressure, defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). It's the standard unit used in scientific and engineering calculations worldwide. A pascal represents a relatively small amount of pressure - atmospheric pressure at sea level is approximately 101,325 Pa.
What is a Torr?
The torr (named after Evangelista Torricelli) is a non-SI unit of pressure equal to 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. One torr is approximately equal to 133.3224 pascals. Torr is commonly used in vacuum technology, blood pressure measurements, and various scientific applications.
Common Applications
- Vacuum systems and technology
- Medical equipment and blood pressure
