What does one newton meter per second represent?

It represents a unit of power equal to one joule per second, which is equivalent to one watt.

Why convert newton meter/second to foot pound-force/second?

Because foot pound-force/second is used in mechanical engineering contexts where imperial units like feet and pound-force are standard.

Is foot pound-force per second suitable for all types of measurements?

No, it is generally not suitable for high precision scientific measurements requiring SI units.
