What are Centimeter and Megapascal

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter, symbolized as 'cm', is a unit of length in the metric system. It is defined as one hundredth of a meter, where 'centi' means one hundredth and 'meter' is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The centimeter is widely used across the globe for everyday measurements and is an essential unit in fields such as engineering, construction, and mapping.

Definition of Megapascal

A megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure or stress in the metric system. It is equivalent to one million pascals, where 'mega' denotes a factor of a million, and a pascal is the SI unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter. The megapascal is commonly used in material science and engineering to express the tensile strength of materials, the pressure of fluids, and other high-pressure measurements.
