What are Dyne and Pound-force

Definition of Dyne

A dyne is a unit of force within the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, equivalent to the force that imparts an acceleration of 1 cm/s² to a mass of 1 gram. It's a small unit of force, not widely used today, but it plays a critical role in CGS-based scientific calculations.

Definition of Pound-force

Pound-force is a unit of force in the Imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It's defined as the force exerted by gravity on a pound-mass at the Earth's surface, approximately equal to 4.4482216 newtons. It's widely used in the United States for measuring force.
