Learn from the advanced practices of the *Brothers section; there are prizes for correct answers – you get a reward just by answering. Let’s grow and mature through questions and answers. True or False: Absolute pressure refers to the pressure relative to an ideal vacuum, expressed in MPa. Gauge pressure refers to the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure, expressed in MPa. 1 atmosphere is equal to 0.1013 MPa of absolute pressure. Gauge pressure plus 0.1013 equals absolute pressure; in other words, absolute pressure minus 0.1013 equals gauge pressure.
