What are Inch Mercury 32 Degree Fahrenheit and Ton-force short sq. Inch

Definition of Inch Mercury 32 Degree Fahrenheit

Inch Mercury 32 Degree Fahrenheit (inHg 32°F) is a unit of pressure measurement that equates to the pressure exerted by a one-inch column of mercury at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This unit is commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure and is still a standard unit in the United States for aviation and weather forecasting.

Definition of Ton-force short sq. Inch

Ton-force short square inch (tonf/in²) is a unit of pressure that represents the amount of force exerted over one square inch area by a short ton (2,000 pounds) of force. This unit is part of the Imperial system of units and is used in the United States for measuring large pressures, such as in mechanical engineering and material science applications.
