display screen used in televisions, computers, watches, and digital clocks.
BAROMETER & BAROMETRIC PRESSURE
A barometer is a device that measures the pressure of the air pushing on it
—this
measurement is called the barometric pressure. We don’t actually feel the
barometric pressure because the air pressure is pushing equally in every
direction.
RELATIVE AIR PRESSURE
Relative air pressure is the same as the barometric pressure. The calculation
of relative air pressure is a combination of the absolute air pressure and the
altitude.
ABSOLUTE AIR PRESSURE
Absolute air pressure is the actual air pressure on the barometer without regard
to altitude.
INCHES OF MERCURY (inHg)
Inches of Mercury are the common unit of measurement for air pressure in the
United States.
HECTOPASCALS (hPa)
Hectopascals are the common units of measurement for air pressure in the
International System (SI) of measurement. The hectopascal holds the same
value
