Discover the precision of our Bar to cmHg converter, a tool designed by Newtum to seamlessly change pressure units from bar to Centimeter Mercury at 0 Degree Celsius. Spark your curiosity and explore its capabilities!
A bar is a unit of pressure defined as exactly equal to 100,000 Pascals. It is not part of the International System of Units (SI) but is accepted for use with it. The bar is widely used in descriptions of pressure because it is about the same as atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level.
Definition of CentimeterA centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one hundredth of a meter, which is the SI base unit of length. The centimeter is used worldwide for many everyday measurements and is a standard unit in the centimeter-gram-second systems of units.
| Bar | Centimeter Mercury at 0°C (cmHg) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 bar | 7.50062 cmHg |
| 0.1 bar | 75.0062 cmHg |
| 0.2 bar | 150.012 cmHg |
| 0.3 bar | 225.018 cmHg |
| 0.4 bar | 300.025 cmHg |
| 0.5 bar | 375.031 cmHg |
| 0.6 bar | 450.037 cmHg |
| 0.7 bar | 525.043 cmHg |
| 0.8 bar | 600.050 cmHg |
| 0.9 bar | 675.056 cmHg |
| 1 bar | 750.062 cmHg |
1 bar = 750.062 cmHg at 0°C
Example 1:
Convert 1.2 bar to cmHg:
1.2 bar = 1.2 × 750.062 cmHg = 900.0744 cmHg
Example 2:
Convert 2.5 bar to cmHg:
2.5 bar = 2.5 × 750.062 cmHg = 1875.155 cmHg
The bar to cmHg converter stems from a need to transition between different units of pressure. Bar, a unit derived from the Greek 'baros' meaning weight, contrasts with cmHg, which relates to the height of a mercury column at 0°C. This converter reflects historical advancements in pressure measurement and scientific standardization.
Understanding the relevance of converting bar to cmHg unveils its vital role in various practical scenarios.
Example 1: To convert 1.5 bar to cmHg: Multiply by the conversion factor (1.5 bar × 750.062 cmHg/bar) to get 1125.093 cmHg.
Example 2: To convert 0.75 bar to cmHg: Use the same factor (0.75 bar × 750.062 cmHg/bar) to obtain 562.5465 cmHg.
