What is a dekajoule per second?

It is an SI-derived unit of power equal to 10 joules per second, representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion.

Why use foot pound-force per second as a power unit?

It is used in mechanical engineering to express power when forces and distances are given in customary imperial units.

How is the conversion between daJ/s and ft·lbf/s calculated?

The conversion uses the factor 1 daJ/s = 7.3756214928 foot pound-force per second.
