  2. Coulomb's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb's_law

    Coulomb's inverse-square law, or simply Coulomb's law, is an experimental law [1] of physics that calculates the amount of force between two electrically charged particles at rest. This electric force is conventionally called the electrostatic force or Coulomb force . [ 2 ]

  3. Coulomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb

    The coulomb was originally defined, using the latter definition of the ampere, as 1 A × 1 s. [4] The 2019 redefinition of the ampere and other SI base units fixed the numerical value of the elementary charge when expressed in coulombs and therefore fixed the value of the coulomb when expressed as a multiple of the fundamental charge.

  4. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured. Many of these are redundant, in the sense that they obey a known relationship with other physical ...

  5. Elementary charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_charge

    If the Avogadro constant N A and the Faraday constant F are independently known, the value of the elementary charge can be deduced using the formula =. (In other words, the charge of one mole of electrons, divided by the number of electrons in a mole, equals the charge of a single electron.)

    where c is the speed of light, G is the gravitational constant, k e is the Coulomb constant, and e is the elementary charge. George Johnstone Stoney's unit system preceded that of Planck by 30 years. He presented the idea in a lecture entitled "On the Physical Units of Nature" delivered to the British Association in 1874. [2]

    For example, the constant π may be defined as the ratio of the length of a circle's circumference to its diameter. The following list includes a decimal expansion and set containing each number, ordered by year of discovery. The column headings may be clicked to sort the table alphabetically, by decimal value, or by set.

  8. Faraday constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_constant

    Since the 2019 revision of the SI, [1] the Faraday constant has an exactly defined value, the product of the elementary charge (e, in coulombs) and the Avogadro constant (N A, in reciprocal moles): F = e × N A = 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 C × 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1 = 9.648 533 212 331 001 84 × 10 4 C⋅mol −1.

  9. Electric charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_charge

    The elementary charge is defined as a fundamental constant in the SI. [7] The value for elementary charge, when expressed in SI units, is exactly 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 C. [1] After discovering the quantized character of charge, in 1891, George Stoney proposed the unit 'electron' for this fundamental unit of electrical charge. J. J.
