Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between inches per second and decimeters per second.
What is inches per second (in/s)?
Inches per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in both US Customary Units as well as the Imperial System. It measures the number of inches traveled in a second. The symbol for inches per second is in/s. There are 3.937007874 in/s in dm/s.
What is decimeters per second (dm/s)?
Decimeters per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of decimeters traveled in a second. The symbol for decimeters per second is dm/s and the International spelling for this unit is decimetres per second. There are 0.254 dm/s in in/s.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from in/s to dm/s is:
dm/s = in/s x 0.254
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from inches per second to decimeters per second (in/s to dm/s).
