millinewton second to dyne second
Convert millinewton second (mN·s) to dyne second (dyn·s). Use an editable impulse converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 mN·s = 100 dyn·s
Conversion formula
One millinewton second equals 100 dyne second. Multiply your value in millinewton second by this factor to get dyne second. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 millinewton second:5 × 100 = 500 dyn·s

About these measurements
Impulse is force integrated over time.
The base reference used here is the newton second. One millinewton second is 0.001 base units; one dyne second is 0.00001 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert mN·s to dyn·s?
Multiply the quantity in mN·s by 100. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the dyne second to millinewton second converter.
