How to convert radioactivity units using the AddUp calculator

How to convert units in general

Conversions can be done either with the "->" conversion operator or with the equivalent "convert" function. The function has three parameters: a quantity, a unit to convert from and a unit to convert to. Likewise the conversion operator uses three values: the quantity and unit to convert from are placed on the left side of the operator while the unit to convert to goes to the right side.

Radioactivity Units

The basic unit of radioactivity is the becquerel. All units of radioactivity are expressed in terms of this base unit and so measurements can be converted from any one of the following units to any other.

becquerel
Basic unit of radioactivity (1 / second): 1 becquerel
curie
37 gigabecquerel: 3.7e10 becquerel
rutherford
megabecquerel: 1e6 becquerel

Sample Conversions of Radioactivity Units

Convert becquerel to curie

10 becquerel -> curie = 2.7027027e-10

convert(10; becquerel; curie) = 2.7027027e-10

Convert becquerel to rutherford

10 becquerel -> rutherford = 0.00001

convert(10; becquerel; rutherford) = 0.00001

Convert rutherford to becquerel

10 rutherford -> becquerel = 10,000,000

convert(10; rutherford; becquerel) = 10,000,000

Convert curie to becquerel

10 curie -> becquerel = 3.7e+11

convert(10; curie; becquerel) = 3.7e+11

Convert curie to rutherford

10 curie -> rutherford = 370,000

convert(10; curie; rutherford) = 370,000

Convert rutherford to curie

10 rutherford -> curie = 0.0002703

convert(10; rutherford; curie) = 0.0002703
