Dyne
dyn
Definition
The dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. The dyne is equal to 10^-5 Newtons.
History/Origin
The dyne was introduced as part of the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system of units in the 19th century. It was widely used in physics and engineering before the adoption of the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system. The name comes from the Greek word "dynamis" meaning power or force.
Current Use
Still used in some areas of physics, particularly in fluid dynamics and surface tension measurements. Common in chemistry for measuring surface tension and in some engineering applications. Used in some scientific instruments and laboratory equipment.

Pound foot/square second
lb⋅ft/s²
Definition
Pound foot per square second is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of units. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one pound at a rate of one foot per second squared. This unit is equivalent to one poundal.
History/Origin
Pound foot per square second was introduced as part of the FPS (foot-pound-second) system of units in the 19th century. It was widely used in physics and engineering before the adoption of the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system. The unit represents the fundamental relationship between mass, acceleration, and force.
Current Use
Still used in some areas of physics and engineering, particularly in the United States. Common in some engineering applications where the FPS system is still used. Used in some scientific instruments and laboratory equipment that were designed using the FPS system.
