What is the relationship between dekagray/second and kilogray/second?

One dekagray per second equals 0.01 kilogray per second, meaning 1 daGy/s = 0.01 kGy/s.

In what situations is converting from daGy/s to kGy/s useful?

Conversions are helpful for expressing very high absorbed dose rates in contexts like industrial irradiation, radiobiology experiments, and nuclear facility radiation assessments.

Are there any safety considerations when working with these units?

Yes, since these units represent high radiation dose rates, proper safety measures must be followed to minimize exposure risks.
