Convert dekawatt to newton meter/second
Please provide values below to convert dekawatt [daW] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to dekawatt.
How to Convert Dekawatt to Newton Meter/second
1 daW = 10 N*m/s
Example: convert 15 daW to N*m/s:
15 daW = 15 × 10 N*m/s = 150 N*m/s

Dekawatt
A dekawatt (daW) is a unit of power equal to 10 watts.
History/Origin
The dekawatt was introduced as part of the metric system's prefixes for larger units of power, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts, but it is not widely adopted in everyday use.
Current Use
The dekawatt is rarely used in modern practice; power measurements are typically expressed in watts or kilowatts. It may appear in specialized technical fields or historical references.
Newton Meter/second
A unit of power representing one newton meter of work done per second, equivalent to a watt.
History/Origin
The newton meter/second has been used in physics and engineering to quantify power, especially in contexts involving torque and rotational work, aligning with the SI system's units for work and time.
Current Use
Primarily used in engineering and physics to measure power in systems involving torque and rotational motion, often interchangeably with watts in SI units.
