inch of mercury to pascal
Please provide values below to convert inch of mercury [inHg] to pascal [Pa], or change ↔.
inch of mercury [inHg]
Definition: The inch of mercury (inHg) is a unit of pressure defined as the height of a column of mercury in inches.
Historyandorigin: Inches of mercury have been used historically to measure atmospheric pressure, especially in weather instruments and barometers.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used in the United States to measure atmospheric pressure and altimeter settings in aviation.
funfact: One inch of mercury is roughly equivalent to 33.8639 hPa (hectopascals), a more common unit for pressure.
pascal [Pa]
Definition: The pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Blaise Pascal, it was introduced in the 19th century as part of the metric system.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific, engineering, and meteorological contexts to measure pressure.
funfact: The pascal is quite small, so it's often used in larger units like kilopascals (kPa) for more practical applications.

How to Convert inch of mercury to pascal
1 inch of mercury [inHg] = 3386.3886667 pascal [Pa]
1 pascal [Pa] = 0.0002952998 inch of mercury [inHg]
we use cross multiplication method
inch of mercury [inHg] → pascal [Pa]
1 → 3386.3886667
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*3386.3886667=1*x
by simplifying
x=5079.583
