What are Dyne and Gram-force

Definition of Dyne

A dyne is a unit of force within the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, symbolized as 'dyn'. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. This unit, although not a part of the International System of Units (SI), is still used in some scientific contexts. One dyne is equivalent to 10^-5 newtons, the SI unit of force.

Definition of Gram-force

Gram-force is a unit of force that is not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the force exerted by one gram of mass in standard Earth gravity on the surface of the Earth. One gram-force is equal to the weight of one gram of mass under standard gravity conditions, which is approximately 9.80665 meters per second squared. Gram-force is sometimes used in engineering and physics to measure force in systems based on gram and centimeter measurements.

Conversion of Dyne to Gram-force

1 dyn·cm = 1.01972e-6 gf·m
1 gf·m = 980665 dyn·cm

Example 1:
Convert 100 dyn·cm to gf·m:
100 dyn·cm = 100 × 1.01972e-6 gf·m = 1.01972e-4 gf·m

Example 2:
Convert 2500 dyn·cm to gf·m:
2500 dyn·cm = 2500 × 1.01972e-6 gf·m = 2.5493e-3 gf·m

History of Dyne and Gram-force

The Dyne Centimeter to Gram-force Meter Converter has a rich history rooted in classical mechanics. Originating from the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system, the dyne centimeter represents work or torque. Over time, the need to relate CGS units to the more widely used SI units led to the development of converters that could translate values like dyn·cm to gf·m, aiding in a wide array of scientific and engineering applications.
