A dyne is a unit of force within the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, equivalent to the force that provides an acceleration of 1 centimeter per second squared to a mass of 1 gram. It represents a small amount of force and plays a fundamental role in physics.
Definition of CalorieA calorie is a unit of energy. Specifically, it is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. The calorie is used in nutrition to quantify the energy produced by food when metabolized by the body.
| Dyne-Centimeter (dyn⋅cm) | Calorie (cal) |
|---|---|
| 1 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 x 10^-8 cal |
| 10 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 x 10^-7 cal |
| 100 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 x 10^-6 cal |
| 1,000 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 x 10^-5 cal |
| 10,000 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 x 10^-4 cal |
| 100,000 dyn⋅cm | 0.002388 cal |
| 1,000,000 dyn⋅cm | 0.02388 cal |
| 10,000,000 dyn⋅cm | 0.2388 cal |
| 100,000,000 dyn⋅cm | 2.388 cal |
| 1,000,000,000 dyn⋅cm | 23.88 cal |
1 dyn⋅cm = 2.388 x 10^-7 cal
1 cal = 4.18400 x 10^7 dyn⋅cm
Example 1:
convert 5 dyn⋅cm to cal:
5 dyn⋅cm = 5 x 2.388 x 10^-7 cal = 1.194 x 10^-6 cal
Example 2:
convert 3.5 dyn⋅cm to cal:
3.5 dyn⋅cm = 3.5 x 2.388 x 10^-7 cal = 8.358 x 10^-7 cal
A brief history of the Dyne-Centimeter to Calorie th Converter dates back to the creation of the CGS system, where the concept of dyne originated. The calorie was later defined, establishing a relationship between these units for energy and work conversions.
Embark on a journey with practical applications of converting dyne-centimeters to calories, enhancing your understanding of energy and work in various fields.
Example 1:
Convert 250 dyn⋅cm to cal:
250 dyn⋅cm = 250 x 2.388 x 10^-7 cal = 5.97 x 10^-5 cal
Example 2:
Convert 1500 dyn⋅cm to cal:
1500 dyn⋅cm = 1500 x 2.388 x 10^-7 cal = 3.582 x 10^-4 cal
1. What is a dyne-centimeter?
A dyne-centimeter is a unit of work or energy within the CGS system, equivalent to the work done by a force of one dyne exerted over a distance of one centimeter.
2. How does the converter work?
Simply input the value in dyne-centimeters, and the converter will automatically compute the equivalent in calories.
3. Can I convert calories back to dyne-centimeters?
Yes, the tool can also perform the reverse conversion from calories to dyne-centimeters.
