What are Megapascal and Centimeter

Definition of Megapascal

A Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system equivalent to one million pascals. It's widely used in engineering and scientific contexts to measure high-pressure values. One MPa equals approximately 9.869 atmospheres, 10 bar, or roughly 145 pounds per square inch (psi), making it a vital unit for high-pressure applications.

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equating to one-hundredth of a meter. It is a commonly used unit in many countries for everyday measurements. The centimeter is ideal for measuring smaller distances where the meter is too large, and the millimeter is too small, bridging the gap between the two for practical precision.
