Femtonewton [fN]


Femtonewton is an ultra-small unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).



  • 1 femtonewton (fN) equals 101510^{-15} newtons (0.000000000000001 newton).



  • It is used in cutting-edge research fields like atomic physics, nanotechnology, and quantum mechanics to measure incredibly tiny forces.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 fN=0.000000000000001 N1 \text{ fN} = 0.000000000000001 \text{ N}

Femtonewtons enable precise measurement of forces at atomic and subatomic levels where minute interactions occur.



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 g×1 cm/s2=105 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.
