Which of the following is not the unit of pressure ?
Which of the following is not the unit of pressure ?
Show Hint
Units that signify a "height of liquid" (like mm of Hg, cm of water) are always pressure units. Units that are named after scientists but don't represent energy/power (like Newton, Joule) represent their specific fundamental quantities (Force, Energy).
