The electrical term "Farad" was named after the popular scientist Michael Faraday. Faraday is well known for his work in electrical components and electro-magnetism. His most famous invention is called the Faraday Cage.
A farad is not equivalent to a volt or an ampere, as these units measure different electrical properties. Specifically, a farad is the unit of capacitance, representing the ability of a component to store electrical charge per volt. In contrast, volts measure electrical potential difference, while amperes measure electric current. Therefore, while they are all part of the same electrical context, they represent distinct concepts.
Farad
farad is the unit for capacitance in SI system. If one volt is developed as one coulomb charge is placed then capacitance has to be one farad. But one farad is enormous large one so practically speaking we use only micro farad, nano farad and pico farad. They are respectively 10-6 F, 10-9 F and 10-12 F
Ohm is a unit of measurement for resistance. The term ohm was named after a German physicist named Georg Simon Ohm.
1 microfarad (μF) is equivilent to one-millionth (10-6) of a farad. Therefore, 1F = 0.000001μF :)
The unit of measurement named after Michael Faraday is the "farad," which is used to measure electrical capacitance. Faraday was a pioneering physicist and chemist known for his work in electromagnetism and electrochemistry.
The unit of electrical capacitance is Farad (F) named after Michal Faraday. A farad is the charge in coulombs a capacitor will accept for the potential across it to change 1 volt. A coulomb is 1 ampere second.
The Farad is a measure of how much electric charge is accumulated on the capacitor. Named after Michael Faraday
A Farad is the electrical unit of capacitance. Many commonly used capacitors (also known as condensors) are measured in micro-Farads (μF). A micro-Farad is one millionth of a Farad. To convert from micro-Farads to Farads, divide the micro-Farad value by one million. 2 micro-farads = 0.000002 Farads.

The Farad (named after Faraday), is the SI derived unit for capacitance.
A microfarad measures electrical capacitance. A farad can be defined as the charge in coulombs, which is 1 ampere per second, that a capacitor will accept for the potential across it to charge one volt. A microfarad is equal to one millionth of a farad.
The unit for capacitance is the Farad, spelled with a capital F, as it was named for a person. The Farad is a huge unit for capacitance for the electronics in use today, so most capacitors are sized in microFarads and micromicroFarads, which these days is called picoFarads.

Ohm is a unit of measurement for resistance. The term ohm was named after a German physicist named Georg Simon Ohm.
The unit of capacitance is the farad. One farad requires one ampere to sustain one volt per second... dv/dt = i/c ...where volts per second is proportional to current in amperes and inversely proportional to capacitance in farads.
