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.

ESU of Resistance

ESU

Definition

Electrostatic Unit of resistance in the CGS system. Equivalent to one statohm, representing approximately 8.987552 × 10^11 ohms in the SI system.

History/Origin

Part of the CGS electrostatic unit system developed alongside electromagnetic units. ESU units were commonly used in early electrical and electromagnetic research.

Current Use

Primarily used in theoretical physics, electromagnetic research, and some specialized applications where the CGS electrostatic system is preferred over SI units.
