Feb 16, 2014 · the work done by the conductor per unit charge per unit current through the conductor, or in terms of SI units, $\mathrm{\frac JC\cdot \frac1A}$ which is the same as: the work done by the conductor per unit current per unit time …

Jan 22, 2022 · Or resistivity has units of Ohm metre-square per metre. But as units are simplified, Ohm metre-square per metre is simplified to Ohm-metres. (Not to be confused with Ohmmeters which are different altogether.)

Mar 27, 2022 · What's the CGS unit of resistance? Is it the same as that in SI system, i.e. ohm (Ω)? I googled but found no explicit answer.

Feb 20, 2013 · I can comprehend some of them. For example, a capacitance of 1 farad means that it will take a single coulomb to create a single volt between the capacitor plates. It could also mean that it will take one second of continuous 1A current to create that volt between the plates. In this manner, how would I imagine the second/ohm representation?

Jun 20, 2018 · $\begingroup$ Philip, I mean if you consider the wire to have a constant cross-section (e.g., a wire of a specific gauge), and measure total resistance R, it really does make sense to talk about "resistance per meter of the given wire", …

The base quantities used in the SI are time, length, mass, electric current, thermodynamic temperature, amount of substance, and luminous intensity. The corresponding base units of the SI were chosen by the CGPM to be the second, metre, kilogram, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela (Proposed draft of the new SI brochure (pdf), §1.2)

Jul 14, 2013 · In the present version of SI, the first of these three are exactly defined, while the other four are empirically measured based on the international prototype kilogram, the magnetic force measurement used to define the ampere, the mass of …

Yes the dimension is different. In SI the current (A) a base unit independent from length (m), mass (kg) and time (s) because we choose to, but in CGS Gaussian unit this is not (1 unit of current = 1 g 1/2 cm 3/2 s-2), by setting $\epsilon_{0,SI} = \frac1{4\pi}$. This also leads to some perhaps unintuitive results, like the unit capacitance in ...

Jun 9, 2018 · $\begingroup$ You use either a thin space or a centered dot to separate units where there is the possibility of confusing the leading abbreviation with a SI prefix. But I'll note that in many cases the common usage is historical (like $1\,\mathrm{N} = 1\,\mathrm{kg\cdot m/s^2}$ rather than $1 \,\mathrm{m \, kg \, s^{-2}}$. $\endgroup$

Oct 8, 2020 · In the SI system all other units are derived from some combination of these and are called derived units. In particular, the SI unit for speed is the m/s, a derived unit. However, although the SI unit for speed in general is derived, the specific constant “the speed of light in vacuum” is defined in the SI. That means that in the SI system ...
