In physics, the dyne (symbol "dyn", from Greek δύναμις (dynamis) meaning power, force) is a unit of force specified in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system of units, a predecessor of the modern SI. Physics (Greek Physis - φύσις in everyday terms is the Science of Matter and its motion. In Physics, a force is whatever can cause an object with Mass to Accelerate. The centimetre-gram-second system ( CGS) is a system of physical units. A system of measurment is a set of units which can be used to specify anything which can be measured and were historically important regulated and defined because of Trade and One dyne is equal to exactly 10 micronewtons. The newton (symbol N) is the SI derived unit of Force, named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on Classical Further, the dyne can be defined as "the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimetre per second squared". Mass is a fundamental concept in Physics, roughly corresponding to the Intuitive idea of how much Matter there is in an object For other uses of the words gram or gramme see Gram (disambiguation. A centimetre ( American spelling: centimeter, symbol cm) is a unit of Length in the Metric system, equal to one hundredth The second ( SI symbol s) sometimes abbreviated sec, is the name of a unit of Time, and is the International System of Units

Dynes per centimetre is the measurement usually associated with measuring surface tension. For the work of fiction see Surface Tension (short story. Surface tension is a property of the surface of a Liquid that causes it to For example, the surface tension of distilled water is 72 dyn/cm at 25 °C (77 °F).

The newton (symbol N) is the SI derived unit of Force, named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on Classical The unit kilogram-force ( kgf, often incorrectly just kg) or kilopond ( kp) is defined as the Force exerted by Earth's gravity This article deals with the unit of force For the unit of mass see Pound (mass.

| The value of gn as used in the official definition of the kilogram-force is used here for all gravitational units. A foot (plural feet or foot; symbol or abbreviation ft or sometimes &prime – the prime symbol) is a non-SI unit Standard gravity, usually denoted by g 0 or g n is the nominal acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface at sea level | |||||
