What are Statvolt and Newton

A Statvolt (abbreviated as statV) is a unit of electric potential and electromotive force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is defined as the potential difference that, when applied across a conductor with a resistance of one statohm, results in a current of one statampere. This unit is primarily used in fields involving electromagnetic phenomena and is a part of the electrostatic unit (esu) system. Although less common in modern scientific work, the Statvolt provides a historical reference for understanding electric potential in the CGS system, contrasting with the more widely used volt in the International System of Units (SI).

A Newton (symbol: N) is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is named after Sir Isaac Newton, in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically Newton's second law of motion. One newton is defined as the amount of force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. This unit is widely used in various fields including physics, engineering, and science to quantify force, weight, and load. The concept of force measured in newtons is fundamental in understanding the effects of forces on objects and their subsequent motion.

History of Statvolt and Newton

The Statvolt/centimeter to Newton/coulomb Converter has evolved from the need to bridge two important units of electric field measurement. Historically, the statvolt, a CGS unit, was prevalent in theoretical physics, while the newton per coulomb, part of the SI system, gained prominence in practical applications. This converter emerged as a vital tool for scientists and engineers, facilitating accurate and efficient conversions between these units, which are crucial for various scientific and industrial applications. Over time, this tool has become indispensable for those requiring precision in electric field calculations.
