- Select the target unit abcoulomb/meter (abC/m)
- Click the convert button to get the result
- Review the output and apply it in your analysis or calculations
Key Features
- Supports conversion between coulomb/centimeter and abcoulomb/meter units
- Based on established conversion rates recognized in physics and engineering
- Useful for both modern SI-based and legacy CGS-emu electromagnetism contexts
- Simple interface for quick calculations
- Browser-based, requiring no installation or registration
Examples
- 2 C/cm converts to 20 abC/m
- 0.5 C/cm converts to 5 abC/m
Common Use Cases
- Describing charge distribution along rods or wires in electrostatics
- Specifying charge per length in high-voltage or corona discharge cable experiments
- Converting legacy CGS-emu electromagnetism data to SI units for modern engineering
- Analyzing electric fields in computational simulations of charged line objects

- Abcoulomb/meter is less commonly used in present-day practice
- Conversion back and forth may introduce rounding or precision considerations
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does coulomb per centimeter measure?
- It measures linear charge density, representing electric charge distributed per centimeter length of an object.
- How is abcoulomb/meter related to coulomb/centimeter?
- One coulomb per centimeter equals ten abcoulomb per meter, based on the difference between SI and CGS-emu systems.
- Why convert between these units?
- Conversion helps interpret and unify legacy CGS-emu data with modern SI calculations and to align measurements from different unit systems.
Key Terminology
- Coulomb per centimeter (C/cm)
- A unit of linear charge density indicating charge per centimeter length, expressed in SI-related but non-SI format.
- Abcoulomb per meter (abC/m)
- A linear charge density unit from the CGS-emu system, where 1 abC/m equals 10 C/m in SI units.
- Linear charge density
- The quantity of electric charge distributed along a unit of length.
