What is the relation between millinewton and dekanewton?

One millinewton equals 0.0001 dekanewtons as per the standard SI unit conversion.

In which fields is converting mN to daN most useful?

It is commonly used in robotics, materials testing, mechanical engineering, and sensor calibration.

Why do converted values from mN to daN appear very small?

Because millinewton measures very small forces and dekanewton represents larger force magnitudes, the conversion leads to small decimal figures.
