About torr
The Torr is named after Evangelista Torricelli, the inventor of the barometer. It is defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. For almost all practical purposes, 1 Torr equals 1 mmHg. It is primarily used in high-vacuum physics and engineering. torr are commonly used in High vacuum systems, Mass spectrometry, Thin-film manufacturing, and Physics research.
Outer space is a near-perfect vacuum (0 Torr).
About psi
PSI stands for 'Pounds per Square Inch'. It is the standard unit for pressure in the United States. It measures how many pounds of force are pressing on every square inch of surface. It is the unit every American driver looks for when filling their tires. psi are commonly used in Tire pressure (US), Blood pressure (rarely), Scuba tanks (US), and Industrial pumps, Paintball tanks.
A standard car tire is inflated to 30-35 psi.
