How to Convert torr to pascal
1 torr = 133.32236842105263 Pa
1 Pa = 0.007500616827041697 torr
To convert torr to pascal, multiply the value by 133.3223684. To convert pascal back to torr, divide by 133.3223684.
Example: convert 10 torr to Pa:
10 torr = 10 x 133.32236842105263 = 1333.2236842105262 Pa
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.
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).
