What are Dyne and Psi

Definition of Dyne

A dyne is a unit of force within the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, equivalent to approximately 10 microneutons. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram by one centimeter per second squared.

Definition of Psi

Psi, or pounds per square inch, is a unit of pressure in the customary system of units. It measures the force exerted on one square inch of area. One psi represents the pressure generated by a one-pound force applied to an area of one square inch.
