What are Torr and Newton square Centimeter

The 'Torr' is a unit of pressure named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It's defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a millimeter of mercury (mmHg) at 0 degrees Celsius. One Torr is equivalent to 133.322368 pascals in the SI system of units.

A Newton per square centimeter (N/cm²) is a derived metric unit of pressure. It quantifies the force applied over an area of one square centimeter. In this unit, one Newton, the SI unit of force, is spread uniformly over an area of one square centimeter. It's widely used in various scientific and engineering fields to measure stress, tensile strength, and other pressure-related parameters.
