Convert inch of mercury to pascal

Learn how to convert 1 inch of mercury to pascal step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (i n c h o f m e r c u r y) = x (p a s c a l)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(p a s c a l)

Left side: 1.0 (i n c h o f m e r c u r y) = 3386.388640341 (p a s c a l) = 3386.388640341 (P a)

Right side: 1.0 (p a s c a l) = 1.0 (p a s c a l) = 1.0 (P a)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (i n c h o f m e r c u r y) = x (p a s c a l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 3386.388640341 \times (p a s c a l) = x \times 1.0 \times (p a s c a l)

Or

1.0 \cdot 3386.388640341 \cdot (P a) = x \cdot 1.0 \cdot (P a)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 3386.388640341 \cdot (P a) = x \times 1.0 \times (P a)

Conversion Equation

3386.388640341 = x \times 1.0

Simplify

3386.388640341 = x

Switch sides

x = 3386.388640341

Solve

x

x = 3386.3886403 \approx 3.3864 \times 10^{3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (i n c h o f m e r c u r y) \approx 3.3864 \times 10^{3} (p a s c a l)
