What are Megapascal and Atmosphere

Definition of Megapascal

A Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to one million pascals. It's a measure of force applied per unit area, where one pascal is one newton per square meter. The Megapascal is commonly used in materials science and engineering to express the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and compressive strength of materials.

Definition of Atmosphere

The atmosphere (at) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa. It is the pressure exerted by the weight of air in the Earth's atmosphere at sea level. One atmosphere is equivalent to the pressure caused by a column of mercury that is 760 millimeters high at 0 degrees Celsius and under the acceleration of gravity. It's a standard unit for atmospheric and barometric pressure.
