Dynes explained

The dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It measures the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. Though largely replaced by the newton in the SI System, the dyne remains significant in certain fields, especially in physics and surface science. Its compact scale makes it ideal for measuring very small forces, such as surface tension or intermolecular interactions.

Newtons explained

A newton is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit for force. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram by one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, this unit plays a vital role in physics and engineering, particularly in understanding motion and mechanics.
