The word viscosity means consistency or thickness.
Therefore to measure the viscosity of a solution the unit that is used is known as dyne or cgs.
The word dyne has been derived from the Greek word dynamis meaning force or power.
Thus, dyne is defined as a force that is needed to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.
Thus one dyne means 10 micronewtons
