Pressure (part 2) Atmospheric pressure…

Guys in above article we have seen how much 1N force is and which is nothing but the force exerted by 100g of mass. Now we are going to see about how much 1atm pressure is ? And how much force is exerted on a human body.😲

✓ WHAT THE HELL IS 1atm = 750 mmHg

Guys I think you have already messed up with this 1atm = 760 mmHg.🤔 This picture below is known as barometer which is used to measures atmospheric pressure. If you observe carefully that the atmospheric pressure is exerted on the surface of mercury (Hg) from either side of test tube and due to which the mercury level is lifted about 760 mm in the tube as shown in Figure.

So this is why we are using 1atm = 760 mm of Hg
