The Franklin, named after Benjamin Franklin, is a unit of electric charge in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) electrostatic system of units. It is defined as the charge that exerts a force of one dyne on an equal charge at a distance of one centimeter. Although primarily of historical interest and rarely used today outside of specific scientific contexts, the Franklin remains an important part of the history of electromagnetism. It is equivalent to approximately 3.33564 × 10^-10 coulombs in the International System of Units (SI), serving as a bridge between the classical and modern understanding of electric charge.
Definition of KilocoulombA kilocoulomb (kC) is a unit of electric charge in the International System of Units (SI), representing one thousand coulombs. It is commonly used in applications involving large quantities of charge, such as in industrial settings or scientific research. The coulomb, the base unit, is defined by the amount of charge transferred by a current of one ampere in one second. The kilocoulomb, therefore, is crucial in calculations and practical applications where large-scale charge measurements are necessary, providing a standardized and convenient measure for significant electrical quantities.
