  1. 'Ampere' or 'Amp'.


  2. Current is measured in Ampere, often shortened to amp in colloquial speech, with the symbol A.

  3. Definition

    One ampere is defined to be the constant current which will produce a force of 2×10–7 newton per metre of length between two straight, parallel conductors of infinite length and negligible circular cross section placed one metre apart in a vacuum.

    The S.I. unit of charge, the coulomb, is defined to be the quantity of charge displaced by a one ampere per second. Conversely, an ampere is one coulomb of charge going past a given point in the duration of one second; that is, in general, charge Q is determined by steady current I flowing per unit time t as:

        Q=I*t

  4. Ampere

  5. Amperes
