To convert a measurement in dynes to a measurement in meganewtons, divide the force by the following conversion ratio: 100,000,000,000 dynes/meganewton.

Since one meganewton is equal to 100,000,000,000 dynes, you can use this simple formula to convert:

meganewtons = dynes ÷ 100,000,000,000

The force in meganewtons is equal to the force in dynes divided by 100,000,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 50,000,000,000 dynes to meganewtons using the formula above.
meganewtons = (50,000,000,000 dyn ÷ 100,000,000,000) = 0.5 MN

Dynes and meganewtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Dyne?

The dyne is the force needed to move one gram of mass at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.

The dyne is a centimeter-gram-second (CGS) unit of force. Dynes can be abbreviated as dyn; for example, 1 dyne can be written as 1 dyn.

Dynes can be expressed using the formula: 1 dyn = 1 gcms2

What Is a Meganewton?

One meganewton is equal to 1,000,000 newtons, which are equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.

The meganewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "mega" is the prefix for millions, or 106. Meganewtons can be abbreviated as MN; for example, 1 meganewton can be written as 1 MN.
