rad to joule/centigram
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to joule/centigram [J/cg], 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!
joule/centigram [J/cg]
Definition: A unit used to measure radiation dose, where the energy absorbed is expressed per centigram of material.
Historyandorigin: Similar to joules per gram, this unit can be useful when measuring tiny amounts of materials in precise scientific studies.
CurrentUse: Used less frequently today, but can be found in specialized scientific research or situations requiring very small mass measurements.
funfact: This unit is rarely used in everyday radiation assessments, but it's useful in extremely sensitive radiation experiments!

How to Convert rad to joule/centigram
1 rad [rd] = 1.E-7 joule/centigram [J/cg]
1 joule/centigram [J/cg] = 10000000 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → joule/centigram [J/cg]
1 → 1.E-7
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-7=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-7
