This category contains definitions related to Standard Atmospheric Pressure.


The standard atmospheric pressure is the quantity of pressure defined as

\(\ds P_0\) \(=\) \(\ds 1\) standard atmosphere
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 1 \cdotp 01325 \times 10^5\) pascals \(\quad\) in SI units
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 1 \cdotp 01325 \times 10^6\) dynes per square centimetre \(\quad\) in CGS units
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 1 \cdotp 01325 \times 10^3\) millibars
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 760\) millimetres of mercury
\(\ds \) \(\approx\) \(\ds 14 \cdotp 696\) pounds per square inch \(\quad\) in FPS units

It is roughly equivalent to the mean sea-level atmospheric pressure on Earth.
