rad/second to kilogray/second
Please provide values below to convert rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] to kilogray/second [kGy/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!
kilogray/second [kGy/s]
Definition: A unit of absorbed radiation dose rate equivalent to 1 kilogray (10^3 Gy) per second.
Historyandorigin: The prefix 'kilo' represents a factor of 10^3, used to describe moderate-high radiation levels, often in industrial applications.
CurrentUse: Used in industrial radiation treatments, such as sterilization and in research facilities for radiation testing.
funfact: Kilograys are still high levels of radiation, mostly encountered in medical or industrial applications for things like sterilizing medical equipment!

How to Convert rad/second to kilogray/second
1 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] = 0.00001 kilogray/second [kGy/s]
1 kilogray/second [kGy/s] = 100000 rad/second [rd/s, rad/s]
we use cross multiplication method
rad/second [rd/s, rad/s] → kilogray/second [kGy/s]
1 → 0.00001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.00001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.000015
