What are Megaton and Inch-pound

Definition of Megaton

A megaton is a unit of explosive energy equivalent to one million tons of TNT. It's often used in nuclear weapon yield descriptions and other high-energy events. This colossal measurement quantifies substantial force, making it a standard unit for expressing vast energy outputs in scientific and military contexts.

Definition of Inch-pound

An inch-pound is a unit of torque representing the force applied at a one-inch radius to achieve rotational motion. Commonly used in engineering and mechanics, one inch-pound equals one pound of force acting on a lever one inch from the pivot point, illustrating the twisting force applied to objects.
