rad to picogray
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to picogray [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!
picogray [pGy]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to 0.000000000001 grays.
Historyandorigin: Picograys represent extremely low doses of radiation and are used in highly sensitive instruments.
CurrentUse: Used in research settings where minuscule radiation doses need to be measured with high accuracy.
funfact: Picograys can measure radiation exposure from cosmic rays and are crucial for space studies!

How to Convert rad to picogray
1 rad [rd] = 10000000000 picogray [pGy]
1 picogray [pGy] = 1.E-10 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → picogray [pGy]
1 → 10000000000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*10000000000=1*x
by simplifying
x=15000000000
