What does one newton per square millimeter represent?

It represents a pressure equal to one newton force applied over an area of one square millimeter and is exactly one megapascal.

When is the terapascal unit typically used?

Terapascal is used to quantify extremely large pressures seen in high-pressure physics, shock compression, and planetary science.

Is this conversion relevant for everyday pressure measurements?

No, due to the large difference in magnitude, this conversion is mostly applicable in specialized scientific and engineering contexts involving very high pressures.
