About these units
Dyne (dyn)
- Definition
- A dyne is the CGS unit of force equal to 10⁻⁵ newtons, the force to accelerate one gram at one centimeter per second squared.
- History
- It comes from the centimeter-gram-second system of the 19th century.
- Current use
- Dynes appear in physics, surface-tension measurements, and older literature.
Meganewton (MN)
- Definition
- A meganewton (MN) is one million newtons, used for very large forces.
- History
- It is a metric multiple of the newton for large-scale work.
- Current use
- Meganewtons describe rocket-engine thrust and heavy-press forces.
