What does decimeter/square second measure?

It measures acceleration as the change in velocity by one decimeter per second per second, commonly used in sub-metre scale experiments and devices.

Where is attometer/square second used?

Attometer per square second is for very tiny accelerations, often in ultra-precise physics experiments and sensor sensitivity descriptions.

How do I convert between these units?

Multiply the value in decimeter/square second by 100000000000000000 to get attometer/square second.
