The blood pressure is measured using a sphygmomanometer. The systolic pressure ( pressure when the heart is pumping ) and the diastolic pressure ( pressure when the heart is resting ) are measured in mm of mercury ( density - 13.59 gms / cm^3 . The systolic and diastolic pressures of a healthy person are about 120 mm and 80 mm of mercury respectively. Express this pressure in kPa and in meters of water ( density - 1 gm/cm^3).
