Millinewtons to Dynes Conversion (mN to dyn)

Millinewtons to Dynes Converter

Enter the force in millinewtons below to convert it to dynes.

Result in Dynes:

1 mN = 100 dyn

How to Convert Millinewtons to Dynes

To convert a measurement in millinewtons to a measurement in dynes, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 100 dynes/millinewton.

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

dynes = millinewtons × 100

The force in dynes is equal to the force in millinewtons multiplied by 100.

For example, here's how to convert 5 millinewtons to dynes using the formula above.

dynes = (5 mN × 100) = 500 dyn

How Many Dynes Are in a Millinewton?

There are 100 dynes in a millinewton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 mN = 100 dyn

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

What Is a Millinewton?

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

The millinewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10^-3. Millinewtons can be abbreviated as mN; for example, 1 millinewton can be written as 1 mN.

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 gcm / s²
