What does one newton per square millimeter represent?

It represents the pressure exerted by one newton of force applied over an area of one square millimeter, equal exactly to one megapascal.

Why convert newton per square millimeter to millipascal?

Because millipascal measures very small pressures, this conversion helps translate large mechanical stress values into fine pressure units for precision instruments.

Are there difficulties in converting between these two units?

Yes, due to the large difference in scale, numeric results can become extremely large, requiring careful numerical handling and precise measurement tools.
