Dyne Centimeter

dyn·cm

Definition

The dyne centimeter (dyn·cm) is a CGS unit of torque, equal to 1.0E-7 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced when a force of one dyne is applied perpendicularly at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was commonly used in the CGS system for small-scale torque measurements in scientific applications. It provided a practical unit for laboratory measurements and scientific calculations.

Current Use

Primarily used in specialized scientific research and laboratory applications where CGS units are maintained for consistency with historical data and specific scientific protocols.

Ounce-Force Foot

ozf·ft

Definition

The ounce-force foot (ozf·ft) is an imperial unit of torque, equal to 0.084738624 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one ounce-force applied at one foot from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was part of the US customary system for torque measurements in smaller applications. It provided a practical unit for ounce-scale force applications in engineering and manufacturing.

Current Use

Still used in some US engineering applications and manufacturing specifications where ounce-force measurements are more practical than pound-force measurements for smaller torque applications.
