rad/second to gray/second
Please provide values below to convert rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] to gray/second [Gy/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!
gray/second [Gy/s]
Definition: The SI unit of absorbed radiation dose rate, where 1 Gy is the absorption of 1 joule of radiation energy per kilogram of matter per second.
Historyandorigin: Named after the British physicist Louis Harold Gray, the gray is used to quantify radiation dose absorbed by matter.
CurrentUse: This unit is widely used in radiology, nuclear physics, and radiation protection to measure dose rates of radiation.
funfact: Gray is a standard measure used to assess radiation exposure levels in various fields, including medical and environmental radiation studies!

How to Convert rad/second to gray/second
1 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] = 0.01 gray/second [Gy/s]
1 gray/second [Gy/s] = 100 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s]
we use cross multiplication method
rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] → gray/second [Gy/s]
1 → 0.01
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.01=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.015
