roentgen to microcoulomb/kilogram
Please provide values below to convert roentgen [R] to microcoulomb/kilogram [µC/kg], or change ↔.
roentgen [R]
Definition: A unit of radiation exposure, defined as the amount of radiation required to produce ionization in one cubic centimeter of air.
Historyandorigin: Named after Wilhelm Röntgen, who discovered X-rays, the roentgen was widely used to measure radiation exposure until the 1970s.
CurrentUse: While largely replaced by the SI unit 'coulomb per kilogram,' the roentgen is still used in some places and for specific applications in radiology.
funfact: The roentgen measures the ability of radiation to ionize air, but its use has decreased as more accurate measurements have been developed!
microcoulomb/kilogram [µC/kg]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to one millionth of a coulomb per kilogram.
Historyandorigin: The prefix 'micro' represents a factor of 10^-6, typically used for measuring extremely small radiation doses.
CurrentUse: Often used in precise laboratory or research settings to measure trace amounts of ionizing radiation in biological and environmental samples.
funfact: Microcoulombs per kilogram are used in highly controlled radiation environments, where even small exposures are carefully monitored!

How to Convert roentgen to microcoulomb/kilogram
1 roentgen [R] = 258 microcoulomb/kilogram [µC/kg]
1 microcoulomb/kilogram [µC/kg] = 0.003875969 roentgen [R]
we use cross multiplication method
roentgen [R] → microcoulomb/kilogram [µC/kg]
1 → 258
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*258=1*x
by simplifying
x=387
