Explore the precision of atmosphere to Newton per square centimeter conversion. Developed by Newtum, this tool simplifies complex calculations, piquing your curiosity to understand the intricacies of pressure conversion.
The standard atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1.01325 bar). It represents the average atmospheric pressure at sea level at a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius. This unit is used as a reference to calibrate instruments and for various scientific calculations involving atmospheric pressure.
Definition of Newton per square centimeterNewton per square centimeter (N/cm²) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It measures the amount of force exerted per square centimeter area. One N/cm² is the pressure exerted by a one Newton force applied uniformly over a surface area of one square centimeter.
Standard Atmosphere (atm) | Newton per Square Centimeter (N/cm²) |
---|---|
0.1 atm | 1.01325 N/cm² |
0.2 atm | 2.0265 N/cm² |
0.3 atm | 3.03975 N/cm² |
0.4 atm | 4.053 N/cm² |
0.5 atm | 5.06625 N/cm² |
0.6 atm | 6.0795 N/cm² |
0.7 atm | 7.09275 N/cm² |
0.8 atm | 8.106 N/cm² |
0.9 atm | 9.11925 N/cm² |
1.0 atm | 10.1325 N/cm² |
Example 1:
Convert 1 atm to N/cm²:
1 atm = 1.01325 N/cm²
Example 2:
Convert 2 atm to N/cm²:
2 atm = 2 × 1.01325 N/cm² = 2.0265 N/cm²
