What does mm or Hg mean?

Answer 1

PressureMillimeters of Mercury (written as mm Hg) are a measure of pressure. Another standard measure of pressure is called an atmosphere (ATM). 1 mm Hg = 0.00131578947 ATMHere are the conversions between other standard measures of pressure:

1 ATM = 14.6959488 pounds per square inch (PSI)

1 ATM = 29.9246899 inches of mercury (in Hg)

1 ATM = 760 mm mercury (mm Hg)

1 ATM = 760 torr

1 ATM = 101 325 pascals

1 ATM = 1.01325 bar

Answer 2

The abbreviation mm stands for millimeter. It is a metric unit of measure equal to 0.1 centimeters, or 0.001 meters. To compare to something tangible, it's the diameter of a pinhead. Hg is the symbol for the element mercury, the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature.

Answer 3

mm Hg = milli metres of Mercury It's a measurement of pressure or level.

Answer 4

"mm" stands for millimeters and "Hg" stands for mercury. mmHg is used as the unit of measurement for pressure typically in medical contexts, like blood pressure measurements.

Answer 5

mm Hg is millimeters of mercury (Hg is symbol for mercury) and is used to measure pressure, usually atmospheric pressure.

Answer 6

it's not an acronym. it means millimetres of mercury and it's for measuring pressure typically of vacuum. 760 mm Hg = 1 atmosphere

Answer 7

It stands for millimeter per mercury

Answer 8

Pressure is measured in mm Hg

Answer 9

mm = millimetre

Hg = Mecury
