What are Newton and Mercury

The Newton, symbol 'N', is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is defined as the force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton for his work on classical mechanics, one Newton is equivalent to 1 kg·m/s².

Mercury is a chemical element with the symbol Hg and atomic number 80. It is commonly known as quicksilver and was formerly named hydrargyrum. A heavy, silvery d-block element, mercury is the only metallic element that is liquid at standard conditions for temperature and pressure; the only other element that is liquid under these conditions is the halogen bromine.

History of Newton and Mercury

The history of converting N/mm² to mmHg dates back to the evolution of pressure measurement. Scientists needed a way to accurately convert between different units of pressure. This conversion is particularly useful in fields like meteorology, aviation, and medicine where accurate pressure readings are crucial.
