What is the atmospheric pressure in Colorado?
For example, Denver, Colorado is about 1.6 kilometers (1 mile) above sea level. The atmospheric pressure of Denver drops to 0.85 kilograms per square centimeter (12 pounds per square inch) at this altitude.
What is normal barometric pressure in mmHg?
760 mmHg
Standard atmospheric pressure is called 1 atm of pressure and is equal to 760 mmHg and 101.3 kPa. Atmospheric pressure is also often stated as pounds/square inch (psi).
How do you read barometric pressure mmHg?
One atmosphere of barometric pressure is equal to 760 millimeters of mercury. Get your barometric pressure reading in atmospheres. Multiply the barometric pressure reading in atmospheres by 760 millimeters of mercury.
What is barometric pressure altitude?
Pressure altitude is displayed as the height above the “standard” datum plane, which, in this case, is a theoretical plane where air pressure is equal to 29.92 in. Pressure altitude is the indicated height value on the altimeter when the altimeter setting is adjusted to 29.92.
What is the pressure of 1 atmosphere?
1,013 millibars
An atmosphere (atm) is a unit of measurement equal to the average air pressure at sea level at a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit). One atmosphere is 1,013 millibars, or 760 millimeters (29.92 inches) of mercury. Atmospheric pressure drops as altitude increases.
How do you calculate mmHg?
As discussed earlier we know that one millimetre of mercury is the pressure exerted by a 1mm vertical column of mercury at 0 degree Celsius. And we also know that one mmHg is also equal to 1 torr, which is 1 / 760 of atmospheric pressure (atm) that is 1 atm = 760 mmHg.
What is normal air pressure in kPa?
101.325 kilopascals
Standard sea-level pressure, by definition, equals 760 mm (29.92 inches) of mercury, 14.70 pounds per square inch, 1,013.25 × 103 dynes per square centimetre, 1,013.25 millibars, one standard atmosphere, or 101.325 kilopascals.
How do you calculate barometric pressure?
Convert between units of pressure.
- Convert from inches of mercury (read from the barometer) to millibars: if you know the inches of mercury, simply multiply by 34.433.
- Convert from psi to mm of mercury: multiply the psi by 51.7.
- Convert from psi to inches of mercury: multiply the psi measurement by 2.041.
What is the formula used to calculate pressure?
Pressure is the force per unit perpendicular area over which the force is applied, p=F/A.
