joule/kilogram to kilogray
Please provide values below to convert joule/kilogram [J/kg] to kilogray [kGy], 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!
kilogray [kGy]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to 10^3 grays.
Historyandorigin: The kilogray is used to measure significant doses of radiation, typically in fields like radiation therapy and industrial applications.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in radiation therapy and medical fields to calculate the dose delivered to patients.
funfact: Kilograys are critical in radiotherapy, where precise doses of radiation can be applied to treat tumors!

How to Convert joule/kilogram to kilogray
1 joule/kilogram [J/kg] = 0.001 kilogray [kGy]
1 kilogray [kGy] = 1000 joule/kilogram [J/kg]
we use cross multiplication method
joule/kilogram [J/kg] → kilogray [kGy]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
