Why is the Inch Water unit temperature-specific?

Because the pressure depends on the density of water, which varies with temperature, Inch Water is defined at 60°F to maintain consistency.

When should I use Newton per Square Centimeter instead of other pressure units?

Newton/square centimeter is useful in mechanical engineering and materials testing when areas are measured in centimeters squared and precise force per area values are needed.

Can I convert Newton/square centimeter directly to Pascal?

Yes, since one Newton/square centimeter equals 10,000 pascals, you can convert it to the SI unit pascal for standard applications.
