Cubic Centimeters per second to Decilitres per second conversion

How to convert cubic centimeters per second to decilitres per second?

To convert cubic centimeters per second (cc/s) to decilitres per second (dL/s), you need to understand the relationship between these units of volume.

• 1 cubic centimeter (cc) is equivalent to 1 milliliter (mL).
• 1 deciliter (dL) is equivalent to 100 milliliters (mL).

Given this, the conversion factor from cubic centimeters to deciliters is as follows:

$1 \text{ cc} = 1 \text{ mL}$ $1 \text{ dL} = 100 \text{ mL}$

So to convert cubic centimeters (cc) to deciliters (dL), you divide by 100:

$\text{cc/s} \div 100 = \text{dL/s}$

Now, let's apply this to convert 1 cubic centimeter per second to deciliters per second:

$1 \text{ cc/s} \div 100 = 0.01 \text{ dL/s}$

Real-World Examples for Other Quantities of Cubic Centimeters per Second

1. 10 cc/s to dL/s: $10 \text{ cc/s} \div 100 = 0.1 \text{ dL/s}$

2. 50 cc/s to dL/s: $50 \text{ cc/s} \div 100 = 0.5 \text{ dL/s}$

3. 100 cc/s to dL/s: $100 \text{ cc/s} \div 100 = 1 \text{ dL/s}$

Practical Examples

• Intravenous (IV) Infusion Pumps: Medical IV pumps are often measured in cc/s. For example, if an IV pump is delivering 5 cc/s of saline solution, it would be delivering 0.05 dL/s.

• Engine Fuel Injection: Fuel injectors in car engines typically operate within the range of 200-500 cc/min (cubic centimeters per minute). Converting this to cc/s:

  • 200 cc/min = 3.33 cc/s which is 0.0333 dL/s
  • 500 cc/min = 8.33 cc/s which is 0.0833 dL/s

• Aquarium Filtration Systems: Many aquarium filters specify flow rates in liters per hour (L/h). For a small filter with a flow rate of 600 liters per hour, converting to cc/s:

  • 600 L/h = 600,000 cc/h = 166.67 cc/s which is 1.6667 dL/s

By understanding the relationship between cubic centimeters and deciliters, you can apply these conversions to a variety of practical situations.
