In the SI system,an energy absorption of 1 J/kg of matter in the irradiated object equals which of the following?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The energy absorption of 1 J/kg of matter is equivalent to a dose of 1 Gy (Gray) in the SI system. Sv (Sievert) represents the equivalent dose, taking into account the type of radiation and its biological effects; C/kg (Coulombs per kilogram) is a measure of ionization in air and is not directly related to dose; mSv (millisievert) is a smaller unit for dose, equivalent to 0.001 Sv.
