What are Petapascal and Ton-force

A Petapascal (PPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It represents a magnitude of one quadrillion pascals. Pascals are the SI units for measuring pressure, and one Petapascal equals 10^15 pascals. This unit is often used in scientific contexts to express extremely high pressures, such as those found deep within the Earth or in certain industrial processes.

Ton-force, specifically the long ton-force, is a unit of force that was traditionally used in the United Kingdom before the adoption of the metric system. One long ton-force is equivalent to the force exerted by gravity on a long ton (2,240 pounds or 1,016.0469088 kilograms) at the Earth's surface. This unit is not a part of the International System of Units (SI) but is still used in some contexts, particularly in describing the force applied by heavy machinery or in engineering.
