The SI unit for pressure is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre. other units: pound per square inch (psi) = 0.0339 Pa pound per square foot (psf) = 4.882 Pa bar = 100 kPa mbar (millibar) = 0.001 ba = 100 Pa standard atmosphere = 101325 Pa

What units are usually used to measure the volume of a gas?
Volume, Tempature, Pressure
What unit is pressure measured?
Pressure is often measure in units of force per area. In the standard system of units, the SI, that would be Newton / meter2 - this unit is also called Pascal. Other commonly used units are bar (equal 100,000 Pascal), and atmosphere (the atmospheric pressure under standard conditions - close to one bar).
What two units are commonly used to measure air pressure?
Probably a mercury barometer and a aneroid barometer. -adrian
In what units does a hygrometer measure in?
No units - it's a percent value.
What unit is used to measure pressure?
There are several very commonly used units to measure pressure. Probably the most common is atmospheres (atm). The other very common units are millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), which is the same as torr, and then there is kilopascal (kPa).
What do you measure units with?
Units of measure are used to measure anything: length or volume, mass or speed, pressure or force etc.
What units do you measure air pressure in?
mpa
What are to units to measure air pressure?
p.s.i.
What do you measure with?
Units of measure are used to measure anything: length or volume, mass or speed, pressure or force etc.
Is there a unit of measure that begins with b?
Barometric pressure and baker's dozen are units of measure that begin with the letter b.
How many meters per millibars?
None. They are units of measure for different things. Meters measure linear distance millibars measure pressure.
How many feet in 10 atmospheres?
Those are incompatible (non-convertable) units: Feet is a measure of length, atmospheres is a measure of pressure.
What unit does a barograph measure in?
A barograph is a device that monitors pressure. It plots pressure vs time. Units can be kPa vs hr.
What do you measure with atmospheres?
Pressure is measured in atmospheres (as well as Pascals, millimeters mercury and other units)
What did people use the barometer for?
To measure pressure in the air. Meteorologists use them (weather people) a barometer is used for measuring pressure,the units for measuring pressure include atm,pascal,torr,mm of hg,bars.
What units are used to measure atmosheric pressure?
The SI unit for pressure is a Pascal but in this case the standard unit is the standard atmosphere (= 101325 Pa).
What can you measure in units of Pascal Torr or Bar?
Units of Pascal, Torr, or Bar are commonly used to measure pressure. These units represent the force exerted by a fluid or gas over a given area. Pascal is the SI unit, Torr is commonly used in vacuum measurements, and Bar is used in meteorology and industrial applications.
