What are Millipascal and Ton-force

Definition of Millipascal

A Millipascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) that is equal to one thousandth of a Pascal. The Pascal unit, named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, is defined as one Newton per square meter. Millipascals are commonly used in scientific and engineering disciplines to measure minor pressures or stress levels.

Definition of Ton-force

A Ton-force, specifically a short ton-force, is a unit of force commonly used in the United States, equivalent to 2,000 pounds-force (lbf). It is the force required to accelerate a short ton (2,000 pounds or approximately 907.185 kilograms) at the rate of one foot per second squared. Ton-force units are often used in industries such as engineering and construction to describe large force magnitudes.
