What are Dyne and Millipascal

Definition of Dyne

A dyne is a unit of force defined in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. It's a fundamental concept in physics, illustrating how force, mass, and acceleration are interrelated.

Definition of Millipascal

A millipascal is a derived unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI), represented as mPa. It is a submultiple of the pascal, which is the SI unit of pressure defined as one newton per square meter. The millipascal is equal to one-thousandth of a pascal and is used for measuring small differences in pressure.

Dyne to Millipascal Conversion Table

Dyne per Square Centimeter (dyn/cm²) Millipascal (mPa)
1 dyn/cm² 10 mPa
10 dyn/cm² 100 mPa
20 dyn/cm² 200 mPa
50 dyn/cm² 500 mPa
100 dyn/cm² 1000 mPa
200 dyn/cm² 2000 mPa
500 dyn/cm² 5000 mPa
1000 dyn/cm² 10000 mPa
2000 dyn/cm² 20000 mPa
5000 dyn/cm² 50000 mPa

Conversion of Dyne to Millipascal

1 dyn/cm² = 10 mPa
1 mPa = 0.1 dyn/cm²

Example 1:
Convert 100 dyn/cm² to mPa:
100 dyn/cm² = 100 × 10 mPa = 1000 mPa

Example 2:
Convert 250 dyn/cm² to mPa:
250 dyn/cm² = 250 × 10 mPa = 2500 mPa

History of Dyne and Millipascal

The Dyne square Centimeter to Millipascal Converter is rooted in the transition from the CGS system to the SI system. Originally, pressure was measured in dynes per square centimeter, a CGS unit. As the SI system became more prevalent, there was a need to convert these measurements to millipascals, an SI unit, leading to the creation of this conversion tool.
