A centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one hundredth of a meter. It represents the standard unit for measurement of small distances and heights. This unit is widely used in various fields such as construction, science, and everyday measurements due to its convenience and ease of use.
Definition of TorrThe Torr is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. One Torr is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of mercury at zero degrees Celsius at sea level.
| Centimeter Water (cmH2O) | Torr |
|---|---|
| 1 cmH2O | 0.735559 Torr |
| 2 cmH2O | 1.47112 Torr |
| 3 cmH2O | 2.20668 Torr |
| 4 cmH2O | 2.94224 Torr |
| 5 cmH2O | 3.67780 Torr |
| 6 cmH2O | 4.41336 Torr |
| 7 cmH2O | 5.14892 Torr |
| 8 cmH2O | 5.88448 Torr |
| 9 cmH2O | 6.62004 Torr |
| 10 cmH2O | 7.35560 Torr |
1 cmH2O = 0.735559 Torr
Example 1:
Convert 10 cmH2O to Torr:
10 cmH2O = 10 × 0.735559 Torr = 7.35559 Torr
Example 2:
Convert 25 cmH2O to Torr:
25 cmH2O = 25 × 0.735559 Torr = 18.388975 Torr
The Centimeter Water 4 Degree Celsius to Torr Converter has its roots in scientific necessity. Historically, scientists needed a reliable way to relate water-based pressure measurements, common in medical and meteorological fields, to the mercury-based Torr, used in a variety of scientific applications.
