rad to dekagray
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to dekagray [daGy], or change ↔.
rad [rd]
Definition: A unit used to measure the absorbed dose of radiation, indicating the energy deposited per unit mass of tissue.
Historyandorigin: The rad (radiation absorbed dose) was introduced in the 1950s and was the standard unit for absorbed dose until the adoption of the gray (Gy).
CurrentUse: Though largely replaced by the gray, the rad is still occasionally used in certain contexts, especially in older literature.
funfact: One rad equals 0.01 gray (Gy), a unit now used more widely for measuring radiation exposure!
dekagray [daGy]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to 10 grays.
Historyandorigin: The dekagray is used in certain specialized applications requiring moderate levels of radiation exposure.
CurrentUse: Less commonly used, but may appear in certain scientific or industrial settings.
funfact: Dekagrays are useful for middle-range radiation studies, but have mostly been replaced by more specific units like the gray!

How to Convert rad to dekagray
1 rad [rd] = 0.001 dekagray [daGy]
1 dekagray [daGy] = 1000 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → dekagray [daGy]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
