Converting from Hectopascal (hPa) to Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg)

What is Hectopascal (hPa)

Hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. It is equal to one millibar (mb) and is used to forecast weather conditions.

What is Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg)

Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) is another unit of pressure commonly used in weather forecasting. It is the pressure exerted by a column of mercury that is 1 centimeter in height at a given temperature.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from hPa to cmHg, you can use the formula:

cmHg=0.07500615×hPa

To convert from cmHg to hPa, you can use the formula:

hPa=13.33224×cmHg

Examples

• Converting 2 hPa to cmHg:

cmHg=0.07500615×2=0.1500123

• Converting 13 hPa to cmHg:

cmHg=0.07500615×13=0.97508

• Converting 6 cmHg to hPa:

hPa=13.33224×6=79.99344

By using these conversion formulas, you can easily convert between hPa and cmHg for your pressure measurement needs.
