What is a centihenry?

A centihenry (cH) is a unit of electrical inductance equal to one-hundredth (0.01) of a henry, commonly used in small inductors and tuned circuits.

What does EMU of inductance represent?

EMU of inductance is a unit from the cgs-EMU system, historically known as the abhenry, representing magnetic flux linkage per unit current equivalent to 10⁻⁹ henry.

Why convert centihenry to EMU of inductance?

This conversion helps relate practical inductance values in modern SI units to small-scale inductances or to interpret historical electromagnetic data in the cgs-EMU system.

Is EMU of inductance part of the SI system?

No, EMU of inductance is not part of the International System of Units and is mainly used for historical or specialized electromagnetic purposes.
