What are Gigapascal and Millimeter

Definition of Gigapascal

A gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) that is equivalent to one billion pascals. It's a measure of force distributed over an area. One pascal is the pressure exerted by a one-newton force acting on a one-square-meter area. Therefore, a gigapascal represents a substantial amount of pressure, often used in scientific contexts to measure the stiffness of materials or the internal pressures within the Earth.

Definition of Millimeter

A millimeter is a metric unit of length, equivalent to one-thousandth of a meter. It is a commonly used unit in various fields, such as engineering, manufacturing, and science, to measure small distances or dimensions with precision. The millimeter is part of the International System of Units, which is based on the meter-kilogram-second system. It is represented by the symbol 'mm' and is commonly used in tools like calipers and micrometers for precise measurements.
