What is a terapascal (TPa)?

A terapascal is a pressure unit equivalent to 10^12 pascals, used to describe very high pressures in physics and planetary science.

What does millimeter mercury (0°C) measure?

Millimeter mercury (0°C) measures pressure based on the height of a mercury column at zero degrees Celsius under standard gravity.

Why convert from TPa to mmHg?

Converting from TPa to mmHg helps express extremely high pressures in units familiar in clinical, laboratory, and engineering settings.
