Frequently Asked Questions

How many dynes is 1 newton? +
1 newton equals exactly 100,000 dynes.
What is surface tension measured in? +
Surface tension is often reported in dynes/cm (CGS) or mN/m (SI). Water has a surface tension of about 72 dynes/cm at room temperature.
Why is the dyne so small compared to a newton? +
The CGS system uses grams and centimeters as base units. Since 1 g and 1 cm are much smaller than 1 kg and 1 m, the derived force unit (dyne) is correspondingly smaller.
