erg/square centimeter to dyne/centimeter
Please provide values below to convert erg/square centimeter to dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm], or change ↔.
erg/square centimeter
Definition: A unit of energy per unit area, where 1 erg is (10^{-7}) joules.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the CGS system, where energy is measured in ergs, and area in square centimeters.
CurrentUse: Mainly used in scientific research involving small energy quantities, especially in the field of physics and astronomy.
funfact: Ergs are typically used in areas such as astrophysics and particle physics, where small units of energy are needed.
dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm]
Definition: A unit of force per unit length, where 1 dyne is the force required to accelerate a mass of 1 gram by 1 cm/s².
Historyandorigin: The dyne is part of the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system, and the unit of force per centimeter is used for precise force measurements.
CurrentUse: Mainly used in the CGS system for forces in small-scale scientific experiments, particularly in fluid dynamics.
funfact: The dyne was widely used in older physics literature before the more universally accepted newton was adopted.

How to Convert erg/square centimeter to dyne/centimeter
1 erg/square centimeter = 1 dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm]
1 dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm] = 1 erg/square centimeter
we use cross multiplication method
erg/square centimeter → dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
