Dyne (dyn)
The dyne is a CGS force unit and appears in older physics literature.
History: the dyne appeared in the CGS system as the force that accelerates one gram by one centimeter per second squared.
Quickly convert dynes to pound-force without lookup tables or manual math.
This page is focused on converting dynes to pound-force. Type a number into the first field and the result appears immediately in the second field.
Example: 1 dyn = 0.0000022481 lbf. Conversion formula: result = value × 1.0E-5 / 4.4482216152605.

Pound-force is an imperial force unit used in mechanics, thrust, and load ratings.
History: pound-force developed in imperial engineering as the weight force of one pound under standard gravity.
Enter a value in the Dyne field. The converter applies the formula "result = value × 1.0E-5 / 4.4482216152605" and immediately shows the result in pound-force.
