joule/kilogram to gray
Please provide values below to convert joule/kilogram [J/kg] to gray [Gy], or change ↔.
joule/kilogram [J/kg]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose that measures the energy absorbed by a unit mass of material, commonly used to describe the energy deposited in tissue.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the joule, a unit of energy, and kilogram, a unit of mass, this unit is used to represent absorbed energy per unit mass.
CurrentUse: Widely used in the SI system for radiation measurement, and the equivalent of the gray (Gy) in terms of energy absorption.
funfact: 1 joule per kilogram is equal to 1 gray, a unit used in many radiation science and health studies!
gray [Gy]
Definition: The SI unit for measuring the absorbed radiation dose, representing the absorption of one joule of radiation energy per kilogram of matter.
Historyandorigin: The gray replaced the rad in most scientific contexts to standardize radiation measurement internationally.
CurrentUse: The gray is the most widely used unit for radiation dose measurements in medicine, radiation protection, and scientific research.
funfact: The gray is a crucial unit in radiation therapy, ensuring the correct dosage of radiation is applied to cancer cells during treatment!

How to Convert joule/kilogram to gray
1 joule/kilogram [J/kg] = 1 gray [Gy]
1 gray [Gy] = 1 joule/kilogram [J/kg]
we use cross multiplication method
joule/kilogram [J/kg] → gray [Gy]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
