torr

The torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere (101325 Pa). It is named after Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian physicist and mathematician who invented the barometer.

Origin:

The torr is named after Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian physicist and mathematician who invented the barometer in 1643. The unit was originally defined as the pressure exerted by a 1 mm column of mercury at 0°C under standard gravity. It is now defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere (101325 Pa).

Pascal

The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). It quantifies force per unit area and is commonly used to measure pressure, stress, and tensile strength. Mathematically: 1 Pa = 1 N/m² = 1 kg·m⁻¹·s⁻².

Origin:

The unit is named after Blaise Pascal (1623–1662), a French mathematician, physicist, and inventor known for his significant contributions to fluid mechanics and the study of pressure. His work on the principles of hydraulic fluids, including Pascal's Law, laid the foundation for modern fluid dynamics. The pascal as a unit was officially adopted in 1971 by the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) as part of the International System of Units (SI).
