What are Gram-force and Dyne

Definition of Gram-force

A gram-force is a unit of force in the metric system. It is defined as the force exerted by one gram of mass under the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface, which is approximately 9.80665 meters per second squared. This results in one gram-force being equivalent to 9.80665 dynes.

Definition of Dyne

A dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units, symbolized by 'dyn'. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. Thus, one dyne equals exactly 10^-5 newtons.
