gram/centimeter/second to centipoise
Please provide values below to convert gram/centimeter/second [g/cm·s] to centipoise [cP], or change ↔.
gram/centimeter/second [g/cm·s]
Definition: A metric unit of viscosity that measures the amount of fluid flow resistance, commonly used in scientific research.
Historyandorigin: Rooted in the metric system, this unit is part of the older CGS system used for fluid dynamics.
CurrentUse: Used for high-precision measurements in scientific experiments, particularly in lab environments.
funfact: This unit was widely used before the adoption of the SI system and is still found in some specific scientific studies!
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!

How to Convert gram/centimeter/second to centipoise
1 gram/centimeter/second [g/cm·s] = 0.1 centipoise [cP]
1 centipoise [cP] = 10 gram/centimeter/second [g/cm·s]
we use cross multiplication method
gram/centimeter/second [g/cm·s] → centipoise [cP]
1 → 0.1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.1=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.15
