What are Dyne and Dekapascal

Definition of Dyne

A dyne, symbolized as 'dyn', is a unit of force within the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.

Definition of Dekapascal

The dekapascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It is equivalent to ten pascals, where one pascal is the pressure exerted by a force of one newton acting on an area of one square meter.
