Question
Chapter 6, Problem 91IAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason should be determined for the necessity to include the density of mercury liquid and acceleration due to gravity in the definition of millimeter of mercury.
Concept introduction:
Pressure is defined as the force exerted by a gas against the walls of container.The pressure is denoted with symbol "P". The common units which are used to measure pressure are atmosphere (atm), pascal (Pa) etc.
