Gigapascal
A gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one billion pascals, where one pascal (Pa) is the force of one newton per square meter.
History/Origin
The gigapascal was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to measure high-pressure phenomena, especially in materials science and geophysics, as a larger unit than the pascal for convenience.
Current Use
GPa is commonly used to quantify stress, pressure in geological formations, material strength, and high-pressure physics applications.
Millimeter Mercury (0°c)
Millimeter mercury (0°C), abbreviated as mmHg, is a unit of pressure measurement based on the height of a column of mercury in millimeters at 0°C under standard gravity.
History/Origin
The mmHg originated from the use of mercury barometers in the 17th century to measure atmospheric pressure. It became a standard unit in meteorology and medicine for measuring blood pressure and other pressure-related phenomena.
Current Use
Today, mmHg is primarily used in medicine to measure blood pressure and in meteorology for atmospheric pressure readings. It is also used in various scientific and industrial applications where precise pressure measurements are required.
