What does 1 newton per square centimeter represent?

It represents a pressure unit defined as one newton of force applied uniformly over one square centimeter, equivalent to 10,000 pascals.

When is foot water (60°F) used?

It is used for measuring low-pressure hydrostatic pressures from a column of water at 60°F, common in HVAC, water filter measurements, and fluid mechanics.

Why convert from newton per square centimeter to foot water (60°F)?

This helps in relating mechanical or materials testing pressures to hydrostatic pressure units for applications in fluid systems and HVAC design.
