  2. Inch of mercury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_mercury

    Inch of mercury (inHg and ″Hg) is a non-SI unit of measurement for pressure. It is used for barometric pressure in weather reports , refrigeration and aviation in the United States . It is the pressure exerted by a column of mercury 1 inch (25.4 mm) in height at the standard acceleration of gravity .

    Example of hand held electric heat gun Commercial heat gun kit Flame heat gun for shrinkwrapping helicopter. A heat gun is a device used to emit a stream of hot air, usually at temperatures between 100 and 550 °C (373 and 823 K; 212 and 1,022 °F), with some hotter models running around 760 °C (1,030 K; 1,400 °F), which can be held by hand.

    Above the TA, the aircraft altimeter pressure setting is changed to the standard pressure setting of 1013 hectopascals (equivalent to millibars) or 29.92 inches of mercury, with the aircraft altitude will be stated as a flight level instead of altitude. In the United States and Canada, the transition altitude is 18,000 ft (5,500 m). [5]

  8. John F. Kennedy assassination rifle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_F._Kennedy...

    At 100 yards (91 m), the test shots landed 2 + 1 ⁄ 2 to 5 inches (64 to 127 mm) high, within a 3-to-5-inch (76 to 127 mm) circle. Frazier testified that the scope's high variation would actually work in the shooter's favor: with a target moving away from the shooter, no lead correction would have been necessary to follow the target.

  9. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

    Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [1] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.
