1 pascal (Pa) = 0.007500616827 torr (torr)
1 torr (torr) = 133.3223684 pascal (Pa)
How to Convert pascal to torr
1 Pa = 0.007500616827041697 torr
1 torr = 133.32236842105263 Pa
To convert pascal to torr, divide the value by 133.3223684 (equivalently, multiply by 0.007500616827). To convert torr back to pascal, multiply by 133.3223684.
Example: convert 10 Pa to torr:
10 Pa = 10 x 0.007500616827041697 = 0.07500616827041698 torr
pascal
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.
History/origin: The pascal is named after Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer, and philosopher. The unit was adopted in 1971.
Current use: The pascal is used worldwide for measuring pressure in various applications, including meteorology (atmospheric pressure), material science (stress and strain), and engineering (fluid pressure).
torr
Definition: The torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. It is named after Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian physicist and mathematician.
History/origin: The torr is based on the pressure exerted by a column of mercury 1 millimeter high. It was originally defined in relation to the height of a mercury barometer.
Current use: The torr is used in vacuum technology, pressure measurement of low-pressure systems, and some areas of scientific research.
