What are Gram-force sq. Centimeter and Centimeter Mercury

Definition of Gram-force sq. Centimeter

A Gram-force per square Centimeter (gf/cm²) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It represents the pressure exerted by a gram-force acting on an area of one square centimeter. This unit reflects the force of gravity applied by a gram mass, offering a convenient measure for small-scale pressure applications in various scientific and industrial contexts.

Definition of Centimeter Mercury

A Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) at 0 degrees Celsius is a unit of pressure that equals the pressure exerted at the base of a column of mercury 1 centimeter high at 0 degrees Celsius. It is used in some meteorological and medical instruments, such as barometers and blood pressure gauges, to measure atmospheric or vascular pressures.
