Newton [N]
The newton (N) is the SI unit of force.
It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.
Mathematically:
Named after Sir Isaac Newton for his work on classical mechanics.
Commonly used to measure forces such as weight, tension, and thrust in physics and engineering.
Example: The weight of a 1 kg mass under Earth's gravity is approximately 9.8 N.
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:
The dyne is much smaller than the newton and is used primarily in physics and engineering fields that use the CGS system.
For comparison:
Dyne is often used in fields like material science, mechanics, and electromagnetism when dealing with small forces.
