What does inch water (4°C) represent?

It is the hydrostatic pressure produced by a one-inch column of pure water at 4 °C under standard gravity, commonly used for low-pressure measurements.

Why use femtopascal as a pressure unit?

Femtopascal measures extremely small pressures useful in scientific research and astrophysics, especially for ultra-low gas pressures.

Can I measure femtopascal pressures with ordinary instruments?

No, femtopascal units represent ultra-low pressures typically requiring specialized, highly sensitive equipment to detect accurately.
