What are Torr and Ton-force

Definition of Torr

The 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 one standard atmosphere, where one atmosphere equals 101,325 Pascals. Therefore, one Torr is equal to 133.322 Pascals. This unit is commonly used in vacuum applications and barometric pressure measurements.

Definition of Ton-force

A ton-force, often abbreviated as 'tonf', is a unit of force that represents the weight of one short ton under the influence of standard gravity. Specifically, one short ton-force is equal to 2000 pounds-force in the British Gravitational System. The ton-force is utilized in industries such as engineering and materials science to describe large force magnitudes.
