What are Pound-force and Dyne

Definition of Pound-force

Pound-force, abbreviated as lbf, is a unit of force in the Imperial system of measurement. It represents the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one pound at the surface of the Earth. Specifically, one pound-force equals 4.44822 newtons. This unit is commonly used in various engineering and physics applications where the force is a critical parameter. Understanding pound-force is essential for accurate measurements and calculations in fields like mechanical engineering, aerodynamics, and material science.

Definition of Dyne

The dyne, symbolized as dyn, is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. One dyne is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. In terms of the more universally recognized SI units, one dyne equals 10^-5 newtons. The dyne is often used in physics and engineering to measure small forces, providing a more convenient scale for certain applications compared to larger units like the newton.
