What are Gigapascal and Dyne

Definition of Gigapascal

A Gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system equivalent to one billion pascals. It's widely used in scientific contexts to measure extreme pressures, such as the stiffness of materials or the pressure within the earth's crust.

Definition of Dyne

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

Gigapascal to Dyne Conversion Table

Gigapascal (GPa) Dyne per square Centimeter (dyn/cm²)
0.01 GPa 1e+7 dyn/cm²
0.1 GPa 1e+8 dyn/cm²
0.2 GPa 2e+8 dyn/cm²
0.5 GPa 5e+8 dyn/cm²
1 GPa 1e+9 dyn/cm²
2 GPa 2e+9 dyn/cm²
5 GPa 5e+9 dyn/cm²
10 GPa 1e+10 dyn/cm²
20 GPa 2e+10 dyn/cm²
50 GPa 5e+10 dyn/cm²

Conversion of Gigapascal to Dyne

1 GPa = 1e+9 dyn/cm²
1 dyn/cm² = 1e-9 GPa

Example 1:
convert 0.02 GPa to dyn/cm²:
0.02 GPa = 0.02 × 1e+9 dyn/cm² = 2e+7 dyn/cm²

Example 2:
convert 0.05 GPa to dyn/cm²:
0.05 GPa = 0.05 × 1e+9 dyn/cm² = 5e+7 dyn/cm²
