Meganewton

The meganewton (symbol: MN) is a decimal multiple of the SI base unit of force, the newton, equal to one million newtons (10⁶ N). It is commonly employed in heavy engineering to quantify massive forces, such as rocket engine thrust, structural testing capacities, hydraulic press ratings, and marine propulsion systems. One meganewton is equivalent to the gravitational weight of approximately 102 tonnes under standard Earth gravity, bridging the gap between everyday mechanical force units and mega-scale engineering.
