Newton to Dyne Converter
Convert Force Units from Newtons (N) to Dynes (dyn)
100,000 dyn
How to Convert Newtons to Dynes
To convert newtons (N) to dynes (dyn), multiply the force value by 100,000:
Dynes = Newtons × 100,000
What is a Newton?
A newton (N) is the SI unit of force. It is defined as the force needed to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared (1 N = 1 kg⋅m/s²).
What is a Dyne?
A dyne (dyn) is the CGS unit of force. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared (1 dyn = 1 g⋅cm/s²).
Example Calculation
Convert 5 newtons to dynes:
5 N = 5 × 100,000 = 500,000 dyn
