Statvolt per inch (statV/in) is a unit of measurement used to quantify electric field strength in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It represents the electric potential gradient along one inch of space. In practical terms, it measures the force exerted by an electric field on a unit charge over one inch. Despite being less common in modern applications, statvolt per inch remains a useful concept in theoretical physics and certain niche scientific areas, especially where CGS units are preferred over SI units.
Definition of Kilovolt/meterKilovolt per meter (kV/m) is a unit of electric field strength in the International System of Units (SI). It signifies the electric potential difference of one kilovolt existing across a distance of one meter. This measurement is crucial in various fields, including electrical engineering and physics, to evaluate the intensity of an electric field. It helps in understanding how much force an electric field can exert on a charge within that field, making it essential for designing and analyzing electrical systems and equipment.
