Convert Dyne Second per Square Centimeter to Square Meter per Second
Input the number of dyne seconds per square centimeter you want to convert to square meters per second.
How to Convert Dyne Seconds per Square Centimeter to Square Meters per Second
The dyne second per square centimeter and square meter per second are both units of viscosity. By definition, 1 square meter per second equals exactly 10 dyne seconds per square centimeter. This means to convert dyne seconds per square centimeter to square meters per second, you divide by 10.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 dyn·s/cm² to square meters per second:
We need to convert dyne seconds per square centimeter to square meters per second
Since 1 m²/s = 10 dyn·s/cm², divide by 10
5 ÷ 10 = 0.5
5 dyn·s/cm² = 0.5 m²/s

About These Units
Dyne Second per Square Centimeter (dyn·s/cm²)
Dyne seconds per square centimeter (dyn·s/cm²) is the fundamental CGS viscosity definition, equivalent to one poise. Shows viscosity as shear stress (dyn/cm²) times time divided by velocity gradient. One dyn·s/cm² = 1 P = 0.1 Pa·s.
Square Meter per Second (m²/s)
Square meters per second (m²/s) is the SI unit of kinematic viscosity—dynamic viscosity divided by density (ν = η/ρ). Water at 20°C: 1×10⁻⁶ m²/s, air: 1.5×10⁻⁵ m²/s. One m²/s = 10,000 stokes = 1,000,000 centistokes. Used in Reynolds number calculations.
