Frequently Asked Questions
- What is an EMU of current?
- The EMU of current is the electromagnetic unit of electric current used in the centimetre–gram–second electromagnetic (cgs-emu) system, equivalent to the abampere and is equal to 10 amperes in the SI system.
- Why convert from EMU of current to ampere?
- Conversion is essential to translate historical or theoretical data in the cgs-emu system into modern SI units, facilitating compatibility in engineering, scientific experiments, and instrumentation.
- How is an ampere defined in the SI system?
- Since 2019, an ampere is defined by fixing the elementary charge, representing the flow of a specific number of elementary charges per second, making it the base SI unit of electric current.
