The Joule, symbolized as 'J', is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). Named after the physicist James Prescott Joule, it quantifies the amount of work done when a force of one newton displaces an object by one meter. It also represents the energy transferred when one ampere of electric current passes through a resistance of one ohm for one second. The Joule is a versatile unit, applicable in various scientific fields such as mechanics, thermodynamics, and electricity, signifying its foundational role in measuring energy and work.
Definition of RemThe Rem, short for Roentgen Equivalent Man, is a unit of measurement for ionizing radiation dosage. It represents the biological effect of radiation on human tissue, factoring in the type and energy of radiation as well as its impact on specific organs. The Rem is a non-SI unit, primarily used in the United States, with its counterpart in the SI system being the Sievert. A central aspect of radiation safety, the Rem helps ensure that exposure remains within safe limits, protecting individuals working in environments such as nuclear power plants, medical facilities, and research labs.
| Joule/kilogram/second (J/kg/s) | Rem/second (Rem/s) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 J/kg/s | 0.0001 Rem/s |
| 0.1 J/kg/s | 0.001 Rem/s |
| 0.5 J/kg/s | 0.005 Rem/s |
| 1 J/kg/s | 0.01 Rem/s |
| 2 J/kg/s | 0.02 Rem/s |
| 5 J/kg/s | 0.05 Rem/s |
| 10 J/kg/s | 0.1 Rem/s |
| 20 J/kg/s | 0.2 Rem/s |
| 50 J/kg/s | 0.5 Rem/s |
| 100 J/kg/s | 1 Rem/s |
1 J/kg/s = 0.01 Rem/s
1 Rem/s = 100 J/kg/s
Example 1:
Convert 5 J/kg/s to Rem/s:
5 J/kg/s = 5 × 0.01 Rem/s = 0.05 Rem/s
Example 2:
Convert 3.5 J/kg/s to Rem/s:
3.5 J/kg/s = 3.5 × 0.01 Rem/s = 0.035 Rem/s
