What are Statampere and Milliampere

A statampere, often abbreviated as statA, is a unit of electric current in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) electrostatic system of units. It is defined based on the force between two parallel wires carrying current. Specifically, one statampere is the current that, when flowing through two infinitely long parallel wires one centimeter apart in a vacuum, produces a force of 2 dynes per centimeter of wire length. This unit is not commonly used in practical applications today but serves as an essential concept in the study of electrostatics and electromagnetism.

A milliampere, abbreviated as mA, is a unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI). It represents one-thousandth of an ampere, which is the standard unit of electrical current. Milliamperes are commonly used in measuring smaller current values in various electronic devices and circuits, such as mobile phones, tablets, and other portable electronics. This unit enables precise measurement and control of current flow, essential for ensuring the proper functioning and efficiency of electronic components and systems.
