Coulomb per Meter
C/m
Definition
The SI base unit of linear charge density, representing one coulomb of electric charge distributed along one meter of length. This unit is fundamental in electromagnetism and electrical engineering applications.
History/Origin
Named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, the French physicist who formulated Coulomb's law. The coulomb was established as the SI unit of electric charge in 1948, and linear charge density measurements became standardized.
Current Use
Widely used in electrical engineering, physics, and materials science for analyzing charge distribution on conductors, calculating electric fields, and designing electrical systems and components.
