Meganewtons
A meganewton (MN) is 106 newtons. It’s commonly used in fields like aerospace engineering to describe the force exerted by rockets or the loads in large structures. Meganeutons are an appropriate unit for expressing massive forces that exceed the capacity of kilonewtons.
Giganewtons
A giganewton (GN) is 109 newtons. It’s used to describe extremely large forces, such as the thrust produced by spacecraft or the force involved in geological phenomena like earthquakes. Giganewtons help put into perspective the vast power involved in significant natural or artificial forces.
