Torr (Torr) to Newton per Square Meter (N/m²) converter

Converting from Torr (Torr) to Newton per Square Meter (N/m²)

What is Torr (Torr)

Torr is a unit of pressure named after Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian physicist and mathematician who invented the barometer. It is commonly used in measuring low pressures, especially in vacuum systems and for pressures of gases in chemistry.

What is Newton per Square Meter (N/m²)

Newton per square meter (N/m²) is the SI unit of pressure. It is equal to the amount of force exerted per unit area. This unit is commonly used in various fields, including physics, engineering, and meteorology.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Torr to N/m², we use the formula:

P(N/m^2)=P(Torr)×133.3224

To convert from N/m² to Torr, we use the formula:

P(Torr)=P(N/m^2)×0.007500617

Examples

1. Converting 16 Torr to N/m²:

P(N/m^2)=16×133.3224=2133.158 (N/m²)

2. Converting 5 Torr to N/m²:

P(N/m^2)=5×133.3224=666.6118 (N/m²)

3. Converting 3 N/m² to Torr:

P(Torr)=3×0.007500617=0.02250185 (Torr)

These examples illustrate the simple process of converting between Torr and N/m² using the given conversion factors.
