When did Andre Marie ampere invent the ampere?
Andre Ampere didn't 'invent' the ampere. The unit for current was named many years after the death of Ampere, in his honour. The ampere is defined in terms of its magnetic effect -i.e. the resulting force between two, parallel, current-carrying conductors. It was Ampere who discovered the relationship between current and force.
