Watt per Ampere

W/A

Definition

A derived unit of electric potential equal to one volt. Represents the ratio of power (watt) to current (ampere), which by definition equals one volt.

History/Origin

This unit arises from the fundamental relationship between power, voltage, and current in electrical circuits (P = V × I). It provides an alternative way to express voltage using basic electrical quantities.

Current Use

Used in electrical engineering when analyzing power systems and circuit relationships. Helpful for understanding the fundamental connection between voltage, current, and power in electrical circuits.

EMU of Electric Potential

EMU

Definition

Electromagnetic Unit of electric potential in the CGS system. Equivalent to one abvolt, representing 10^-8 volts in the SI system.

History/Origin

Part of the CGS electromagnetic unit system developed in the 1800s. EMU units were widely used before the adoption of the SI system in electrical engineering and physics.

Current Use

Primarily used in historical contexts and some specialized physics applications. Occasionally referenced in electromagnetic theory and certain research areas.
