torr to atmosphere
Please provide values below to convert torr [Torr] to atmosphere [atm], or change ↔.
torr [Torr]
Definition: The torr is a unit of pressure defined as 1/760th of an atmosphere, or approximately 133.322 pascals.
Historyandorigin: Named after Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the barometer, the torr was used for vacuum measurements and in scientific applications.
CurrentUse: It is used in vacuum physics and engineering, particularly in the field of gas pressure measurements.
funfact: The torr is often used in scientific experiments involving very low pressures or vacuums.
atmosphere [atm]
Definition: The atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 pascals, which is roughly the average pressure at sea level.
Historyandorigin: The atmosphere unit was created as a way to express the standard atmospheric pressure on Earth.
CurrentUse: It is used in various scientific fields, including chemistry, physics, and engineering, to measure pressure.
funfact: The pressure of the Earth's atmosphere at sea level is exactly 1 atm.

How to Convert torr to atmosphere
1 torr [Torr] = 0.0013157889 atmosphere [atm]
1 atmosphere [atm] = 760.0003215 torr [Torr]
we use cross multiplication method
torr [Torr] → atmosphere [atm]
1 → 0.0013157889
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0013157889=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0019736834
