A dyne is a unit used to measure force.

The dyne is a centimeter-gram-second (CGS) unit of force. Dynes can be abbreviated as dyn; for example, 1 dyne can be written as 1 dyn.

Dynes can be expressed using the formula: 1 dyn = 1 gcms2

How Much Is a Dyne?

The dyne is the force needed to move one gram of mass at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.

How to Convert Dynes

To convert dynes to another unit of force, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]

You can find the conversion factors for dynes in the conversion table below.

Then, multiply the force measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.

dynes × conversion factor = result

You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
