EMU of Resistance

EMU

Definition

Electromagnetic Unit of resistance in the CGS system. Equivalent to one abohm, representing 10^-9 ohms 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.

Reciprocal Siemens

1/S

Definition

A unit of electrical resistance equal to one ohm. Represents the reciprocal of electrical conductance (siemens), since resistance is the inverse of conductance.

History/Origin

This unit arises from the relationship between resistance and conductance, where resistance equals the reciprocal of conductance (R = 1/G). The siemens is the SI unit of conductance.

Current Use

Used in electrical engineering when working with conductance measurements and understanding the inverse relationship between resistance and conductance in electrical circuits.
