kilopascal to millimeter of mercury
Please provide values below to convert kilopascal [kPa] to millimeter of mercury [mmHg], or change ↔.
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals.
Historyandorigin: Kilopascals were introduced as a more practical unit of pressure in everyday use, as pascals themselves are too small.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used to measure pressure in industrial, engineering, and meteorological contexts.
funfact: The standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101.325 kPa!
millimeter of mercury [mmHg]
Definition: The millimeter of mercury (mmHg) is a unit of pressure based on the height of a column of mercury.
Historyandorigin: This unit originated in the 17th century, when mercury barometers were first used to measure atmospheric pressure.
CurrentUse: It is still widely used in medical and scientific applications, especially to measure blood pressure.
funfact: A normal blood pressure reading for a healthy adult is usually expressed in millimeters of mercury, such as 120/80 mmHg.

How to Convert kilopascal to millimeter of mercury
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 7.5006375542 millimeter of mercury [mmHg]
1 millimeter of mercury [mmHg] = 0.133322 kilopascal [kPa]
we use cross multiplication method
kilopascal [kPa] → millimeter of mercury [mmHg]
1 → 7.5006375542
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*7.5006375542=1*x
by simplifying
x=11.250956331
