  2. Orders of magnitude (pressure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(pressure)

    1.5 psi Pressure increase per meter of a water column [26] 10 kPa 1.5 psi Decrease in air pressure when going from Earth sea level to 1000 m elevation [citation needed] +13 kPa +1.9 psi High air pressure for human lung, measured for trumpet player making staccato high notes [48] < +16 kPa +2.3 psi

  3. Inch of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_water

    Feet of water is an alternative way to specify pressure as height of a water column; it is conventionally equated to 2,989.067 pascals (0.4335275 psi). [3] In North America, air and other industrial gases are often measured in inches of water when at low pressure.

    Velocity of sound in water; c in distilled water at 25 °C : 1498 m/s c at other temperatures [8]: 1403 m/s at 0 °C 1427 m/s at 5 °C 1447 m/s at 10 °C 1481 m/s at 20 °C

  5. Litre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litre

    In 1901, at the 3rd CGPM conference, the litre was redefined as the space occupied by 1 kg of pure water at the temperature of its maximum density (3.98 °C) under a pressure of 1 atm. This made the litre equal to about 1.000 028 dm 3 (earlier reference works usually put it at 1.000 027 dm 3 ).

  6. Cold inflation pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_inflation_pressure

    A 2001 NHTSA study found that 40% of passenger cars have at least one tire under-inflated by 0.4 bars (6 psi) or more. [1] The number one cause of tire failure was determined to be under-inflation. Drivers are encouraged to make sure their tires are adequately inflated at all times.

  7. Indian units of measurement - Wikipedia

    40 sers = 1 maund (= 34 kg 8 hg 3 dag 5g 9 dg 2.6 cg /34.835926 kilograms) 1 rattī = 1.75 grains (= 0.11339825 gram/113 milligrams 398 1/4 micrograms 4 attograms ) (1 grain = 0.064799 gram) From 1833 the rupee and tolā weight was fixed at 180 grains, i.e. 11.66382 grams. Hence the weight of 1 maund increased to 37.324224 kilogram. [3]

  8. Compressed natural gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_natural_gas

    Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a fuel gas mainly composed of methane (CH 4), compressed to less than 1% of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.It is stored and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 20–25 megapascals (2,900–3,600 psi; 200–250 atm), usually in cylindrical or spherical shapes.

  9. Tensile testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensile_testing

    Tensile testing on a coir composite. Specimen size is not to standard (Instron). Tensile testing, also known as tension testing, [1] is a fundamental materials science and engineering test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure.
