rad to joule/milligram
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to joule/milligram [J/mg], 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/milligram [J/mg]
Definition: A unit used for extremely precise measurements of energy absorbed, based on milligrams of material.
Historyandorigin: The joule per milligram unit is typically used when the amount of material is very small, allowing highly detailed radiation studies.
CurrentUse: Primarily seen in laboratory or research settings, especially in nuclear physics or medical radiation therapy.
funfact: Using milligrams instead of grams provides a much finer level of detail when analyzing radiation's effects on microscopic samples!

How to Convert rad to joule/milligram
1 rad [rd] = 1.E-8 joule/milligram [J/mg]
1 joule/milligram [J/mg] = 100000000 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → joule/milligram [J/mg]
1 → 1.E-8
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-8=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-8
