What are Torr and Dynes/cm²

Definition of Torr

A Torr is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. One Torr is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, which equates to approximately 133.3223684 pascals. This unit is commonly used in science and technology for measuring pressures close to atmospheric pressure.

Definition of Dynes/cm²

Dynes per square centimeter (dynes/cm²) is a unit of pressure in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is defined as the force of one dyne exerted per square centimeter area. One dyne is the force needed to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.
