What units are used to measure air volume?
cubic meters, m3
What does rad stand for in radiation measurement?
It doesn't "stand" for anything*rad stands for 'radiation absorbed dose'* The rad is an obsolete unit of measure. It is not an abbreviation.According to Anwers.com, it is a "unit of energy absorbed from ionizing radiation, equal to 100 ergs per gram or 0.01 joules per kilogram of irradiated material. It has been replaced as a standard scientific unit by the gray."The gray is the official SI unit equal to one joule per kilogram.
What is CO unit of measure?
As far as I am aware, CO is not a unit of measure.

How do you pronounce Gy in radiation?
The "Gy" in radiation is pronounced like "gray." It stands for gray, which is the unit used to measure absorption of ionizing radiation in tissue.

Which unit is larger curie or rontgen?
If I understand it correctly, the two units measure quite different things, and can't be directly compared. The curie is a unit of radioactivity, while the roentgen is a unit of radiation exposure. The curie is equal to 3.7x1010 disintegrations per second or becquerels. A roentgen is that amount of x-rays or gamma rays which will produce 2.58x10-4 coulombs/kg of dry air. Both the curie and the roentgen are units which are primarily of historical interest, except in the US where they are still commonly used. In the rest of the world, they have largely been replaced by the SI units becquerel and coulomb/kg. Also, it is more common to measure air kerma (in units of joule/kg or gray) than to measure exposure. This latter change is because air kerma, as a measure of energy deposited per unit mass, is more directly related to dose than is exposure, a measure of ionization produced per unit mass or volume.
What is an absorption coefficient?
An absorption coefficient is a measure of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation as it passes through a specific substance - calculated as the fraction of incident radiation absorbed by unit mass or unit thickness.
What is air kerma rate?
Air kerma rate refers to the amount of energy transferred to air by ionizing radiation per unit mass and time, typically expressed in grays per second (Gy/s). It is an important measure in radiology and radiation protection, as it helps quantify the exposure of air to radiation, which can subsequently affect living tissues. The air kerma rate is crucial for determining safe exposure levels and ensuring adequate shielding in medical and industrial applications involving radiation.
The rem is a unit used to measure?
Radiation dose in terms of the amount of the biological effect caused by the amount of energy absorbed
Which unit of measurement is used to determine the amount of radiation present in the air?
Roentgen
What scientific unit of measure is air pressure?
degrese
