Converting from Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²) to Millimeter of Water (mmH₂0)

What is Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²)

Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²) is a unit of pressure where one Newton of force is applied over a square centimeter area. It is commonly used in engineering and physics to measure pressure.

What is Millimeter of Water (mmH₂0)

Millimeter of Water (mmH₂0) is a unit of pressure defined as the height of a column of water in millimeters that exerts a specific pressure at the base. It is often used in medical and meteorological applications to measure small pressures.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion factor between Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²) and Millimeter of Water (mmH₂0) is:

• 1 N/cm²=1019.716 mmH₂0
• 1 mmH₂0=0.000980665 N/cm²

Examples

1. Convert 14 N/cm² to mmH₂0:

   • 14 N/cm²×1019.716=14276.03 mmH₂0

2. Convert 4 mmH₂0 to N/cm²:

   • 4 mmH₂0×0.000980665=0.00392266 N/cm²

3. Convert 8 N/cm² to mmH₂0:

   • 8 N/cm²×1019.716=8157.73 mmH₂0

Remember, these conversions can be useful in various fields where pressure measurements need to be accurately converted between different units.
