Volt per Ampere

V/A

Definition

A derived unit of electrical resistance equal to one ohm. Represents the ratio of voltage to current, which by Ohm's law equals resistance.

History/Origin

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

Current Use

Used in electrical engineering when analyzing circuit relationships and understanding the fundamental connection between voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits.

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.
