rad/second to centigray/second
Please provide values below to convert rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] to centigray/second [cGy/s], or change ↔.
rad/second [rd/s, rad/s]
Definition: A non-SI unit of absorbed radiation dose rate equivalent to 0.01 gray per second.
Historyandorigin: The rad was used as the unit for absorbed radiation dose before being replaced by the gray in the SI system.
CurrentUse: Though no longer the standard in SI units, the rad is still encountered in some radiation protection contexts.
funfact: Rads were used for a long time before the adoption of the gray, and even today, the term 'rad' is still familiar in older literature!
centigray/second [cGy/s]
Definition: A unit of absorbed radiation dose rate equivalent to 1 centigray (0.01 Gy) per second.
Historyandorigin: The prefix 'centi' represents a factor of 0.01, often used in radiation therapy to describe low dose rates.
CurrentUse: Frequently encountered in radiation therapy and diagnostic imaging, particularly in the context of cancer treatment.
funfact: Centigrays are used in radiotherapy treatments to deliver controlled doses to patients, ensuring safe and effective treatment!

How to Convert rad/second to centigray/second
1 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] = 1 centigray/second [cGy/s]
1 centigray/second [cGy/s] = 1 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s]
we use cross multiplication method
rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] → centigray/second [cGy/s]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
