-
The unit of electrical quantity; the quantity of electricity produced by an electromotive force of 1 volt acting for 1 second against 1 ohm of resistance-i. e., the quantity of electricity developed by a current of 1 ampere. In static electricity, the same unit measured by the charge developed in a Leyden jar of the capacity of 1 farad by 1 volt of electromotive force.
