Answer :
The pressure at the summit of Mount Everest is 235 torr, 4.57 psi, 9.25 in Hg, or 0.3092 atm when converted from the original measurement of 235 mm Hg.
The pressure on top of Mount Everest averages about 235 mm Hg. To convert this pressure into different units:
- Torr: Because 1 torr equals 1 mm Hg, the pressure is also 235 torr.
- Pounds per square inch (psi): Using the conversion 1 atm = 760 mm Hg and 1 atm = 14.6959 psi, we get:
235 mm Hg * (1 atm / 760 mm Hg) * (14.6959 psi / 1 atm) = approximately 4.57 psi. - Inches of mercury (in Hg): Since there are 25.4 mm in an inch, we divide 235 mm by 25.4 to convert to inches, giving us approximately 9.25 in Hg.
- Atmospheres (atm): With 1 atm equivalent to 760 mm Hg, the conversion is 235 mm Hg / 760 mm Hg = approximately 0.3092 atm.
