The coulomb is the SI unit of measure of electric charge, equal to the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
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.
No, a unit is a dimension.
"Dimensionless" means it doesn't have a unit.
What is practical is a relative question. The unit for electric cars and biology may be Kilo Joules and ev, electron volts.
In the SI standard for physics units (see NIST website,) quantities of electricity are measured in coulombs, same as the quantity of electric charge.
if i got your question right, in physics the chapter on practical electricity, 1 kWh is equals to 1 unit
A quantity is an amount, or how much there is of a given thing. In this case, a quantity of electricity would be the amount of electricity used in a given reaction.
The difference between quantity and unit in "16 pounds" is the unit is pounds and the quantity is 16.
'Electricity' is not a quantity, so cannot be measured and, therefore, has no unit of measurement. It is the name of a field of study, just like 'chemistry', etc.A 'unit' of electrical energy is short for 'Board of Trade Unit' (a former government organisation that, at one time, set energy prices in the UK), and is exactly equivalent to a kilowatt hour, which is defined as the amount of energy consumed, over a period of one hour, at a rate of one kilowatt. A unit or kilowatt hour is equal to 3.6 million joules (a joule being the SI unit for energy), and normally costs around £0.15 to buy.
The coulomb is the SI unit of measure of electric charge, equal to the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
The term, 'electricity', is a generic, all-encompassing term for a branch of science. Electricity, therefore, isn't a quantity, so it cannot be measured.A megawatt is an unit of measurement for power, the rate of transfer of energy.
A standard use for a measurement of a physical quantity is called the unit of that physical quantity
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.
'Electricity' is not a quantity, it's a topic. So 'emitting electricity' is quite meaningless. You need to rephrase the question to specify what quantity you are actually referring to when you say 'electricity'.
If this question is asking about the box supplied by your utility company which counts the kilowatt.hours you used, so they can send you a bill for electricity, it is called an electricity meter. If you are asking about the name of the standard unit used to measure a quantity of electricity used, it is called the kilowatt.hour (or k.Wh for short.)
First LawThe quantity of a substance produced by electrolysis is proprotional to the quantity of electricity used. Second LawFor a given quantity of electricity the quantity of substance produced is proportional to its weight.
