What does a deciwatt measure?

A deciwatt measures power, specifically one tenth of a watt, often used for low power levels in electronics.

How is newton meter per second related to watts?

One newton meter per second equals one joule per second, which is equivalent to one watt, making it a mechanical power unit.

When should I use this conversion?

Use this conversion when you need to express small electrical power values in mechanical power units, such as for analyzing motors or low-power devices.
