What does one ounce-force inch represent?

One ounce-force inch represents the moment created by one avoirdupois ounce of force acting over a one-inch lever arm, a measure of small mechanical torque or energy.

What is a megaton used for?

A megaton measures very large quantities of energy, commonly representing the yield of nuclear explosions or massive impact events.

Why convert between ounce-force inch and megaton?

To relate very small mechanical energies to extremely large explosive energy scales, aiding in understanding and comparisons across diverse energy magnitudes.
