What does 1 decimeter per square second represent?

It measures acceleration as a change in velocity of one decimeter per second every second, equal to 0.1 metre per second squared.

Why convert to femtometer per square second?

This unit is used to express accelerations on atomic or subatomic length scales relevant in nuclear and particle physics.

Are femtometer/square second units practical for everyday calculations?

No, they are too small and primarily used for specialized theoretical or nuclear physics purposes.
