What are Megapascal and Ton-force

Definition of Megapascal

A Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to one million pascals. It is commonly used in materials science and engineering to express tensile strength, Young's modulus, and other forms of pressure and stress.

Definition of Ton-force

Ton-force, or tonne-force, is a unit of force. It is not part of the International System of Units (SI) and is defined as the force exerted by one ton of mass under the acceleration due to gravity. It can be specified as a metric ton-force or a long ton-force, with the latter being used in imperial systems and is equivalent to 2240 pounds-force.
