A Statampere (statA) is a unit of electric current used in the centimeter-gram-second (cgs) system, specifically in the electrostatic unit (esu) system. Defined as approximately 3.33564 × 10⁻¹⁰ amperes, the statampere represents the current that, when flowing through a wire of infinite length, produces a force of 1 dyne per centimeter of length between the wires. This unit is largely used in theoretical physics and electromagnetism studies, providing a foundation for calculations in electrostatic contexts.
Definition of AbampereThe Abampere (abA), also known as the electromagnetic unit of current, is part of the centimeter-gram-second (cgs) system, specifically in the electromagnetic (emu) system. It is defined as 10 amperes in the more widely used International System of Units (SI). The abampere is employed primarily in physics and electrical engineering to describe electromagnetic phenomena. When one abampere of current flows through a conductor, it generates a magnetic field, illustrating the interconnectedness of electricity and magnetism in the cgs system.
