Converting from Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) to Newton per Square Meter (N/m²) in Pressure

What is Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg)

Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) is a unit of measurement commonly used in the field of pressure to express pressure as the height of a column of mercury in a mercury barometer. It is particularly used in areas like meteorology and aviation.

What is Newton per Square Meter (N/m²)

Newton per Square Meter (N/m²) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) that represents the amount of force exerted per unit area. This unit is widely used in scientific and engineering applications.

Conversion Formulas

• To convert from cmHg to N/m²: N/m2=cmHg×1333.224

• To convert from N/m² to cmHg: cmHg=N/m2×0.0007500615

Examples

1. Converting 12 cmHg to N/m²:

N/m2=12×1333.224=15998.69

2. Converting 6 N/m² to cmHg:

cmHg=6×0.0007500615=0.004500369

These conversions can be useful when working with pressure measurements and need to switch between the two units of cmHg and N/m² easily.
