What does 1 daGy/s equal in gray per second?

One dekagray per second equals ten gray per second, meaning 1 daGy/s = 10 Gy/s.

Why convert from dekagray/second to gray/second?

Converting expresses absorbed dose rates in a widely used SI unit that is suitable for precise radiation dose control and monitoring in various applications.

Is this conversion valid for all radiation dose rate conditions?

The conversion assumes linear scaling; however, practical use depends on proper instrument calibration and may not fully capture complex conditions like pulsed radiation.
