What is a torr used for?

A torr is a pressure unit used to measure low pressures and vacua, commonly in laboratory and industrial vacuum systems.

Why convert torr to femtopascal?

This conversion allows representing very low pressures on an ultra-fine scale, useful in astrophysics and advanced physics research.

Is femtopascal suitable for everyday use?

No, femtopascal units are extremely small and mainly limited to scientific research rather than everyday pressure measurements.
