rad to petagray
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to petagray [PGy], 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!
petagray [PGy]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to 10^15 grays.
Historyandorigin: The petagray is used to measure extremely large doses of radiation, often in large-scale scientific models or astrophysics.
CurrentUse: Used in studies of massive radiation events or very high-energy physical phenomena, such as particle collisions in accelerators.
funfact: Petagrays represent radiation doses on an astronomical scale, such as those experienced during cosmic events!

How to Convert rad to petagray
1 rad [rd] = 1.E-17 petagray [PGy]
1 petagray [PGy] = 99999999999999980 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → petagray [PGy]
1 → 1.E-17
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-17=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-17
