What are Petagray and Joule

Definition of Petagray

A Petagray is a unit of absorbed radiation dose in the International System of Units (SI). It measures the energy deposited by ionizing radiation in a substance. Specifically, one Gray represents the absorption of one joule of radiation energy per kilogram of matter. When scaled to a Petagray, which is one quadrillion (10^15) Grays, it is used in fields like radiation therapy and radiology to quantify high levels of radiation exposure, particularly in industrial and research settings where precise measurements are critical for safety and effectiveness.

Definition of Joule

A Joule is the SI unit of energy, work, or amount of heat. It is defined as the energy transferred when a force of one newton acts on an object to move it one meter in the direction of the force. Named after the physicist James Prescott Joule, this unit is widely used in scientific and engineering contexts. In practical terms, it can also represent the energy consumed by an electrical device, the heat generated by a chemical reaction, or the work done by a machine. Its versatility makes it a cornerstone in physics and engineering.

Petagray/second (Pg/s) Joule/kilogram/second (J/kg/s)
0.01 Pg/s 10 J/kg/s
0.1 Pg/s 100 J/kg/s
1 Pg/s 1000 J/kg/s
10 Pg/s 10000 J/kg/s
50 Pg/s 50000 J/kg/s
100 Pg/s 100000 J/kg/s
500 Pg/s 500000 J/kg/s
1000 Pg/s 1000000 J/kg/s
5000 Pg/s 5000000 J/kg/s
10000 Pg/s 10000000 J/kg/s

Conversion of Petagray to Joule

1 Pg/s = 1000 J/kg/s
1 J/kg/s = 0.001 Pg/s

Example 1:
Convert 5 Pg/s to J/kg/s:
5 Pg/s = 5 × 1000 J/kg/s = 5000 J/kg/s

Example 2:
Convert 3.5 Pg/s to J/kg/s:
3.5 Pg/s = 3.5 × 1000 J/kg/s = 3500 J/kg/s
