Dekane wton [daN]


Dekane wton is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).



  • 1 dekane wton (daN) equals 10110^{1} newtons (10 newtons).



  • It is commonly used in engineering and physics to express moderate forces conveniently.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 daN=10 N1 \text{ daN} = 10 \text{ N}

Dekane wtons are useful when measuring forces greater than newtons but smaller than hectonewtons.


Dyne [dyn]


The dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units.



  • Defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.



  • Mathematically:



1 dyn=1 gร—1 cm/s2=10โˆ’5 newtons1 \text{ dyn} = 1 \text{ g} \times 1 \text{ cm/s}^2 = 10^{-5} \text{ newtons}

  • The dyne is much smaller than the newton and is used primarily in physics and engineering fields that use the CGS system.



  • For comparison:



1 N=105 dyn1 \text{ N} = 10^{5} \text{ dyn}

Dyne is often used in fields like material science, mechanics, and electromagnetism when dealing with small forces.
