What are Kilogram-force and Dyne

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by gravity on a one-kilogram mass at the Earth's surface. It is a non-SI unit that has historical significance and is often used in engineering and physics contexts. One kilogram-force is equivalent to approximately 9.80665 Newtons. This unit provides a practical way to relate mass and force, especially in situations where gravitational force measurements are crucial.

Definition of Dyne

A Dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-gram mass by one centimeter per second squared. One Dyne is equal to 10^-5 Newtons. This unit is commonly used in physics and engineering, especially in fields that deal with small-scale forces and precise measurements. The Dyne helps in understanding and quantifying the effects of small forces in various scientific applications.
