Decinewton [dN]
Decinewton is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).
1 decinewton (dN) equals 10โ1 newtons (0.1 newton).
It is used to measure small forces, especially in contexts where forces less than one newton need to be expressed conveniently.
To put it in perspective:
1 dN=0.1 N
Decinewtons help quantify forces smaller than a newton but larger than centinewtons.
