Millimeter Of Mercury (abbreviations: mm Hg, or mmHg): is a manometric unit of pressure, equal to 133.322387415 pascals. It is the extra pressure generated by a column of mercury of one millimeter high.
Kilogram Per Centimeter Cube (abbreviations: kg/cm2, or kgpcm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of kilogram per centimeter cube.
How to Convert Millimeters Of Mercury to Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube
Example: How many kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 82.32 Millimeters of Mercury?
As;
1 Millimeters of Mercury = 0.00136 kilograms per centimeters cube
82.32 Millimeters of Mercury = Y kilograms per centimeters cube
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 82.32 times 0.00136 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 82.32 * 0.00136 / 1 = 0.1119552 kilograms per centimeters cube
Answer is: 0.1119552 kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 82.32 Millimeters of Mercury.
