What are Dyne and Millimeter

Definition of Dyne

A dyne 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 Millimeter

A millimeter is a metric unit of length equal to one-thousandth of a meter. It is a common unit for measuring small distances and dimensions, often used in engineering and manufacturing.

20 dyn/cm² 0.015 mmHg
30 dyn/cm² 0.0225 mmHg
40 dyn/cm² 0.03 mmHg
50 dyn/cm² 0.0375 mmHg
60 dyn/cm² 0.045 mmHg
70 dyn/cm² 0.0525 mmHg
80 dyn/cm² 0.06 mmHg
90 dyn/cm² 0.0675 mmHg
100 dyn/cm² 0.075 mmHg

Conversion of Dyne to Millimeter

1 dyn/cm² = 0.0075 mmHg
10 dyn/cm² = 0.075 mmHg

Example 1:
Convert 100 dyn/cm² to mmHg:
100 dyn/cm² = 100 × 0.0075 mmHg = 0.75 mmHg

Example 2:
Convert 500 dyn/cm² to mmHg:
500 dyn/cm² = 500 × 0.0075 mmHg = 3.75 mmHg

History of Dyne and Millimeter

The Dyne per Square Centimeter to Millimeter Mercury converter has its roots in the scientific need to relate the CGS unit of pressure (dyn/cm²) to a more practical unit (mmHg) used in medical and meteorological fields.
