How to convert micrograys per hour to rads per second
rad/s = µGy/h × 2.777777778×10⁻⁸Because one rad per second equals 36,000,000 micrograys per hour, you can also divide: rad/s = µGy/h ÷ 36,000,000.
A microgray per hour is smaller than a rad per second: it takes 36,000,000 micrograys per hour to make one rad per second.

About the units
Microgray per hour (µGy/h)
The microgray per hour (µGy/h) is a unit of radiation (absorbed dose rate) in the International System of Units (SI). One microgray per hour equals 2.777777778×10⁻¹⁰ grays per second (Gy/s).
Rad per second (rad/s)
The rad per second (rad/s) is a unit of radiation (absorbed dose rate) in the centimetre–gram–second (CGS) system. One rad per second equals 0.01 grays per second (Gy/s).
Frequently asked questions
How many rads per second are in one microgray per hour?
There are 2.777777778×10⁻⁸ rads per second in one microgray per hour, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert micrograys per hour to rads per second?
Multiply the number of micrograys per hour by 2.777777778×10⁻⁸. For example, 10 µGy/h × 2.777777778×10⁻⁸ = 2.777777778×10⁻⁷ rad/s.
How many micrograys per hour are in one rad per second?
One rad per second equals 36,000,000 micrograys per hour. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 2.777777778×10⁻⁸.
What is 10 micrograys per hour in rads per second?
10 µGy/h = 2.777777778×10⁻⁷ rad/s.
Is this µGy/h to rad/s converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
