What is the SI unit for suction?

I guess that would be measured in units of pressure: Pascal = Newton/meter2.


What is the metric of pressure?

Pressure is measured in any unit of force divided by any unit of area. The SI unit of pressure is the newton per square metre, which is called the pascal (Pa) after the seventeenth-century philosopher and scientist Blaise Pascal.


What is the amount of force exerted per unit of area measured in an SI unit called?

The SI unit for pressure (which is what you're describing) is the pascal, which is defined as one newton per square meter (a newton is itself a kilogram - meter per second squared, so in SI base units a pascal is one kilogram per meter per second per second).A pascal is a pretty small amount of pressure. To put it into perspective, normal atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level is about 100,000 Pa.


What is Force per unit area called?

That is called "pressure". The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal, equal to newtons per square meter.


What is a scentence for the word pascal as in a measurement?

The pascal is the SI unit for pressure. 1 pascal of pressure means 1 newton of force on each square meter of area.


What is the SI unit of pressure which is equal to 1 N exerted per 1 m2?

This unit is called pascal with the symbol Pa.


What is the si unit that water pressure is measured in?

There is no specific unit for "water pressure". The unit for pressure in general is the pascal; 1 pascal = 1 newton / square meter. In practice, the "bar" is often used, but that's not, strictly speaking, an SI unit. 1 bar = 100,000 pascal, and it is approximately equal to 1 atmosphere.


What units are used to display pressure?

The SI unit is the pascal, and the metric unit, the more common, is the millibar.


What is the standard unit used to measure vapor pressure?

Vapor pressure is measured by the standard unit. The International System of Units or SI is the designation Pa or pascal as the standard. One pascal is one newton per square meter.


What is the difference between weight and presssure?

Weight is a force (measured in Newton). Pressure is force per unit area (measured in Newton / meter2, also known as Pascal).


What units is measured in?

A vacuum's quality is indicated by how little material is within it. The quality is usually measured in gas pressure (as torrs). A torr is a historical unit, although still used for vacuum quality. The Si unit is the Pascal.


List different SI units of pressure?

Pressure is a measure of force per area. The SI unit of pressure is a Pascal (Pa) which is equivalent to a Newton per meter squared (N/m2).
