The study involved 142 overweight and obese older adults with osteoarthritis of the knee who participated in an 18 month weight loss program.

In American units of measure, it's 29.92 in. Hg (inches of mercury) or 14.696 psi (pounds per square inch). This means that, at sea level, the weight of air pressing on every square inch of something is almost 15 pounds.Something to think about: If you had 1 square inch of room-temperature mercury that was 29.92 tall, it would weigh ...nfortunately for the student, there are many, many different units for measuring atmospheric pressure. Standard air pressure at sea level is most easily defined as 1 atmosphere, or 1 atm. In terms of an international (ISO) standard, it is defined to be 101325 Pa or 101.3 kPa (kilo-Pascals) at a temperature of 15 Â°C.
