curie to millicurie
Please provide values below to convert curie [Ci] to millicurie [mCi], or change ↔.
curie [Ci]
Definition: A unit of radioactivity, where 1 curie equals 3.7 × 10^10 disintegrations per second (or 37 billion Bq).
Historyandorigin: Named after Marie and Pierre Curie, who pioneered research on radioactivity in the early 20th century.
CurrentUse: Still used in some countries, particularly in the U.S., to measure the activity of certain radioactive materials, especially in medical applications.
funfact: The curie was the standard unit of radioactivity before the becquerel became more widely adopted in the SI system!
millicurie [mCi]
Definition: A unit of radioactivity equal to 10^-3 curies.
Historyandorigin: The prefix 'milli' represents a factor of 10^-3, used for measuring moderate levels of radioactivity.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in medical imaging and radiation therapy to measure the activity of radiopharmaceuticals.
funfact: Millicuries are used for calculating the activity of radioactive materials in diagnostic and therapeutic treatments!

How to Convert curie to millicurie
1 curie [Ci] = 1000 millicurie [mCi]
1 millicurie [mCi] = 0.001 curie [Ci]
we use cross multiplication method
curie [Ci] → millicurie [mCi]
1 → 1000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500
