unit:DYN
In physics, the dyne is a unit of force specified in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system of units. One dyne is equal to In physics, the dyne is a unit of force specified in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system of units. One dyne is equal to \SI{10}{\micro\newton}. Equivalently, the dyne is defined as 'the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimetre per square second'. The dyne per centimetre is the unit traditionally used to measure surface tension.
