An amp is a measure of electric current flow. The amp is a coulomb per second past a given point. (A fancy way of saying it is that a coulomb of charge per second entering and leaving a node is an amp.)

Hoe many coulombs in an amp?

one per second per amp.


What is the units of electric current?

The unit quantity of electricity is the Coulomb. The rate of electricity flow in coulombs per second is the Ampere, sometimes shortened to Amp. Note: current doesn't flow, instead current itself is a flow rate (flow of coulombs of charge per second.) When coulombs are flowing, the flow rate is measured in amperes.


What current will transfer 96 500 coulombs in 1 hour?

1 hour = 3,600 seconds96,500 coulombs/hr = (96,500 / 3,600) coulomb/sec = 26.8056 Amperes (rounded)


Does attaching batteries in parallel increase their amp hours?

Yes, it does. I you have N batteries in parallel each batter supplies 1/Nth of the total current to the system. So basically each battery (and therefore the entire system) will supply power to the load N timers longer. Amp hours = Amp*hours, so if you multiply hours by N you multiply your Amp hour rating by N. Hope this helps. p.s. Amp hours do NOT add in series... basically because 1 Amp*hour = 3600 coulombs and it represents how much charge flows from the batter.


What is a amp hour?

It is one amp current used over one hour. A ten amp hour battery can supply 1/2 an amp for 20 hours, 1 amp for 10 hours, etc.


What happens when a 70 amp hour battery is connected to a 50 amp hour charging circuit voltage of both batteries are being same?

The 50 amp charging circuit will never be able achieve a full charge for the 70 amp hour battery, thus in effect turning the 70 amp hour battery into a 50 amp hour battery.

What is the conversion of 1 amp hour to 1 kilowatt hour?

Multiply by kilovolts, and you will have it. For example: 1 amp hour X 0.120 kilovolts = 0.120 kilowatt hours
