Limitations
-
The line unit is obsolete and non-SI, rarely used in modern settings
-
Precision may suffer due to legacy instrument calibrations
-
Modern applications mainly rely on SI units like the weber instead
-
Conversion accuracy depends on the fixed rate of 1 T·m^2 = 100,000,000 line without adjustment
-
Not suitable for real-time scientific measurement without further validation
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does tesla square meter [T*m^2] measure?
-
It is a derived SI unit of magnetic flux quantifying the total magnetic field passing through a surface, identical to the weber.
-
Why convert from tesla square meter to line?
-
This helps translate modern magnetic flux values into legacy cgs-emu units for analyzing historical data or using older instruments.
-
Is the line unit still used today?
-
No, the line is obsolete and mainly found in older magnetism literature and legacy calculations.
Key Terminology

-
Line
-
An obsolete cgs-emu unit of magnetic flux equal to one maxwell, used historically to quantify magnetic flux through a surface.
-
Magnetic flux
-
A measure of the total magnetic field passing through a specified surface area.
