The ampere (/ ˈ æ m p ɛər / AM-pair, US: / ˈ æ m p ɪər / AM-peer; [1] [2] [3] symbol: A), [4] often shortened to amp, [5] is the unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI). One ampere is equal to 1 coulomb (C) moving past a point per second.
Ampere, unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI), named for 19th-century French physicist Andre-Marie Ampere. It represents a flow of one coulomb of electricity per second. A flow of one ampere is produced in a resistance of one ohm by a potential difference of one volt.
Ampere is defined as the unit of electric current that is equal to the flow of one Coulomb per second. Ampere is named after the French Physicist and Mathematician Andre-Marie Ampere.
The ampere is a measure of the amount of electric charge in motion per unit time ― that is, electric current. But the quantity of electric charge by itself, whether in motion or not, is expressed by another SI unit, the coulomb (C).
An Ampere is the unit of electric current. It is named after the French physicist André-Marie Ampère (who is considered the father of electromagnetism) and used in physics and electrical and electronics engineering as a base unit in SI (International System) to measure the electric current.
The ampere, symbol A, is the SI unit of electric current. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the elementary charge e to be 1.602 176 634 x 10 –19 when expressed in the unit C, which is equal to A s, where the second is defined in terms of Δν Cs.
The ampere (A), often shortened to the amp, is a unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI). One ampere is equal to 1 coulomb (C), or 6.241509074×10 18 electrons worth of charge, moving past a point in a second (s).
The ampere is one of the seven base SI units, and is defined as that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length of negligible cross section and placed one meter apart in a vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to newton per meter of length (BIPM 1998, p. 96).
The ampere is one of several electrical charge units used to measure the electromagnetic force between straight parallel conductors carrying electric current. One ampere is equal to one coulomb of charge (or one newtons per metre) moving past a given it in one second.
Ampere or amp (symbol: A) is the unit of electrical current. The Ampere unit is named after Andre-Marie Ampere, from France. One Ampere is defined as the current that flows with electric charge of one Coulomb per second.
