What are Kilogram-force square Millimeter and Megapascal

Definition of Kilogram-force square Millimeter

A kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm^2) is a unit of pressure expressed as a force of one kilogram-force applied over an area of one square millimeter. This measurement is commonly used in materials science and engineering fields to express compressive strength, tensile strength, and other pressure-related parameters.

Definition of Megapascal

A Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure or stress in the metric system equal to one million pascals. It is a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength. MPa is widely used in engineering as it represents large amounts of pressure and is more manageable than the pascal.
