What are Gigapascal and Inch Mercury

Definition of Gigapascal

A gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to one billion pascals, where a pascal is the pressure exerted by a force of one newton acting on an area of one square meter. Gigapascals are typically used to measure extreme pressures, such as the rigidity of materials, internal pressures in the Earth, and in high-pressure scientific experiments.

Definition of Inch Mercury

Inch of mercury (inHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure. It is used primarily in the United States and measures atmospheric pressure. At 60 degrees Fahrenheit, it represents the amount of pressure that can support a column of mercury one inch high. It is commonly used in aviation, meteorology, and other fields for barometric pressure readings. The exact value can vary slightly based on temperature but is generally close to 3,386.389 pascals at 0°C.
