Everything about Dyne totally explained
» Dynes redirects here. For the president of the University of California system, see
Robert C. Dynes.
In
physics, the
dyne (symbol "dyn", from Greek δύναμις (
dynamis) meaning power, force) is a
unit of
force specified in the
centimetre-gram-second (CGS)
system of units, a predecessor of the modern
SI. One dyne is equal to exactly 10 micro
newtons. Further, the dyne can be defined as "the force required to accelerate a
mass of one
gram at a rate of one
centimetre per
second squared".
1 dyn := 1 g·cm/s² = 10−5 kg·m/s² = 10 µN
Dynes per centimetre is the measurement usually associated with measuring surface tension. For example, the surface tension of distilled water is 72 dyn/cm at 25 °C (77 °F).
