What does centipascal measure?

Centipascal is an SI-derived pressure unit representing one hundredth of a pascal, used for very small pressure measurements.

When is using terapascal as a unit appropriate?

Terapascal is used for quantifying extremely high pressures such as those in planetary cores, shock compression experiments, and theoretical materials science.

How do I convert centipascal to terapascal?

Multiply the pressure value in centipascal by 1e-14 to get the equivalent pressure in terapascal.

Can I rely on the converted values for practical measurement?

Due to the large scale difference, converted values might be extremely small and not always meaningful for practical measurements.
