Nowadays, the ampere is considered the fundamental unit, and the coulomb is the derived unit. In other words, the coulomb is the amount of charge delivered in one second by a current of one ampere.
AnswerThe coulomb has never ever been considered a Base Unit in either the SI or earlier metric systems. The ampere has always been considered a Base Unit. Prior to 1948, the ampere was defined in terms of its chemical effect; after 1948 it was defined in terms of its magnetic effect -i.e. in terms of the force between two, parallel, current-carrying conductors. So, the ampere has never been defined as an unit of rate. On the contrary, the coulomb is a Derived Unit, based on the ampere and the second.That would be the current. The international unit for electrical current is the Ampere. Spelt ampere (with a lower case "a"). The abbreviation is given the upper case "A".
The Ampere (capitalized because its name came from a person) is the basic unit of electrical current.
you can measure the unit of a current in amps (A) we measure the current using a ammeter
Ampere = Coloumb / second is the same as saying that Coloumb = Ampere x second. Any of the two electrical units can be derived from the other one. Ampere is NOT a "fundamental quantity"; it is an SI base unit. The base units are not necessarily those that are somehow considered more "fundamental" than others; instead, the base units are those that can be measured with a great accuracy. In the case of current vs. charge, it seems that measuring a current can be done with greater accuracy than measuring a charge directly; therefore, the current is the base unit, and the current is derived. However, this doesn't make current any more "fundamental" than charge.
A coulomb is a unit for measurement of electrical charge and an ampere is the unit used for measurement of electric current.
It is a unit rate.A unit rate.
Kilowatt per ampere you meant?Power = potential difference x currentSo, p.d = P/Iand can have the unit kilowatt per ampereOn the other hand, the physical quantity with the unit kilowatt-ampere has no meaning.
Unit Rate
it is a unit rate
Unit rate
ampere is the unit of the electric current intensity 1ampere=1coloumb/1sec intensity=quantity/time(by seconds)
The Unit Rate Is The Quantity Of ONE Thing
The difference between quantity and unit in "16 pounds" is the unit is pounds and the quantity is 16.
Unit Rates ... Is the rate for one unit of a given quantity. Unit means one .
That unit is the "Ampere". It represents electrical current.
A Coulomb is the SI unit of electric charge, equal to the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
The answer is a Unit Rate.<3
