Why negative symbol is used to show vacuum?
No common vacuum units that I know of use negative values for a vacuum. Although pressure is an absolute quantity, everyday pressure measurements, such as for tire pressure, are usually made relative to ambient air pressure. In other cases measurements are made relative to a vacuum or to some other ad hoc reference. When distinguishing between these zero references, the following terms are used: Absolute pressure is zero referenced against a perfect vacuum, so it is equal to gauge pressure plus atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is zero referenced against ambient air pressure, so it is equal to absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure. Negative signs are usually omitted. Differential pressure is the difference in pressure between two points. The zero reference in use is usually implied by context, and these words are only added when clarification is needed. Tire pressure and blood pressure are gauge pressures by convention, while atmospheric pressures, deep vacuum pressures, and altimeter pressures must be absolute. Differential pressures are commonly used in industrial process systems. Differential pressure gauges have two inlet ports, each connected to one of the volumes whose pressure is to be monitored. In effect, such a gauge performs the mathematical operation of subtraction through mechanical means, obviating the need for an operator or control system to watch two separate gauges and determine the difference in readings. Moderate vacuum pressures are often ambiguous, as they may represent absolute pressure or gauge pressure without a negative sign. Thus a vacuum of 26 inHg gauge is equivalent to an absolute pressure of 30 inHg (typical atmospheric pressure) − 26 inHg = 4 inHg.
What does the aumred mean?
Do you mean ''What does the AUM Mantra mean?''
Does mean mean average?
No, but sometimes "average" means "mean" - when it doesn't mean median, geometric mean, or something else entirely.

What is the deviation mean mean?
There is no statistical term such as "deviation mean".
What is 940 millibars?
27.7 inhg
What is a vacuum and a partial vacuum?
Vacuum is measured in inHg or inches of mercury and a true vacuum is anything below zero on this scale...for reference normal atmospheric pressure or air pressure is about 14.7 inHg so anything less than that could be expressed as a vacuum or less than atmospheric pressure if above zero but less than 14.7 inHg...you can measure this with a vacuum gauge that you can get at any autoparts store but you can feel a vacuum as a suction just like your vacuum cleaner....So a vacuum is anyththing zero inHg or below and a partial vacuum is anything between zero and 14.7 inHg.
How do you measure pressure in a fuel tank?
It is measured in inches of mercury (inHg)
What is an ordinary condition of temperature and pressure?

1004 millibars is how many inches of mercury?
1004 millibars = 29.65 inHg
How much psia does 10 in. Hg equal?
14.7psia = about 30inhg thus, let 14.7 be 15 for easier calculations if 15 psia = 30 inhg then 1 psia = 30/15 inhg therefore 1 psia = 2 inhg or 1 inhg = 0.5 psia so 10 inhg is about 5 psia hope this helps
Air pressure increases as you go up in altitude?
Air pressure decreases as you go up in altitude. It is roughly 15 pounds per square inch (PSI) at sea level, or 29.92 inHG (inches of Mercury) or in metric, 760 mmHg. At 18,000 ft air pressure is half, or about 14.96 inHG / 380 mmHg. At about 53,000 Feet, or roughly 10 miles, pressure is 1/10 sea level, or about 3 inHG / 7.6 mmHg.
For every inch of mercury how much pressure is there?
1 inch of mercury = 0.03342105263 atmosphere 1 inHg = 0.03342105263 atm
What is the approximate pressure of air at sea level?

The pressure of air at sea level is approximately?
Average sea-level pressure is 101.325 kPa (1013.25 hPa or mbar) or 29.92 inches (inHg) or 760 millimetres of Mercury (mmHg).

What is the average height of mercury in a barometer at sea level?
I don't think there is a good answer to this question. Until just recently, almost nothing was known of its atmosphere. Its atmosphere is constantly being generated from its mass, but due to the heat and solar wind, it is almost immediately lost. I presume that means the pressure varies greatly from time to time, as well as from the dayside to the nightside. I hope that helps. I have something to say too! That person ^ had a good point but i have the real answer... The daily Barometric pressure on mercury is Max Barometric Pressure: 291.0 (inHg-27)*100 Average Barometric Pressure: 291.0 (inHg-27)*100 Current Barometric Pressure: 291.0 (inHg-27)*100 my source.. http://wb9tlh.ampr.us/weather/barometric_pressure/barometer.html
