Radioactivity is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. It is measured in becquerels (Bq).
1 cps = 1 α
1 α = 1 cps
Example:
Convert 15 Counts per Second to Alpha Particles:
15 cps = 15 α
| Counts per Second | Alpha Particles |
|---|---|
| 0.01 cps | 0.01 α |
| 0.1 cps | 0.1 α |
| 1 cps | 1 α |
| 2 cps | 2 α |
| 3 cps | 3 α |
| 5 cps | 5 α |
| 10 cps | 10 α |
| 20 cps | 20 α |
| 30 cps | 30 α |
| 40 cps | 40 α |
| 50 cps | 50 α |
| 60 cps | 60 α |
| 70 cps | 70 α |
| 80 cps | 80 α |
| 90 cps | 90 α |
| 100 cps | 100 α |
| 250 cps | 250 α |
| 500 cps | 500 α |
| 750 cps | 750 α |
| 1000 cps | 1,000 α |
| 10000 cps | 10,000 α |
| 100000 cps | 100,000 α |
