What are Torr and Millimeter

Definition of Torr

A 'Torr' is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, roughly equal to the pressure exerted by a 1-millimeter column of mercury (mmHg) at 0 degrees Celsius. This unit helps scientists and engineers calculate and communicate small differences in pressure accurately.

Definition of Millimeter

A 'Millimeter' is a metric unit of length equal to one-thousandth of a meter. It is a standard unit in the International System of Units (SI), widely used in various fields such as engineering, construction, and science. Millimeters are commonly used to measure small dimensions and provide a high level of precision in measurements.
