Hertz vs. Ampere
Difference Between Hertz and Ampere
Hertznoun
A unit of frequency equal to one cycle per second. See Table at measurement.
Amperenoun
The basic unit of electric current, equal to one coulomb per second and equivalent to the current, flowing in two straight parallel wires of negligible cross section separated by a distance of one meter, that produces a force between the wires of 2.0 × 10-7 newtons per meter of length. The value of an ampere in the International System differs very slightly from that in the meter-kilogram-second-ampere system of units. See Table at measurement.
Hertznoun
In the International System of Units, the derived unit of frequency; one (period or cycle of any periodic event) per second. Symbol: Hz
Amperenoun
A unit of electrical current, the standard base unit in the International System of Units; colloquially amp. Abbreviation: amp, Symbol: A
Definition: The ampere, symbol A, is the SI unit of electric current. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the elementary charge e to be 1.602x 10−19 when expressed in the unit C, which is equal to As, where the second is defined in terms of ΔνCs. ([https://www.bipm.org/en/si-base-units/ampere The International Bureau of Weights and Measures])Hertznoun
the unit of frequency; one Hertz has a periodic interval of one second
Amperenoun
a former unit of electric current (slightly smaller than the SI ampere)
Hertznoun
German physicist who was the first to produce electromagnetic waves artificially (1857-1894)
Amperenoun
the basic unit of electric current adopted under the Systeme International d'Unites;
a typical household circuit carries 15 to 50 ampsHertznoun
German physicist who with James Franck proved the existence of the stationary energy states postulated by Bohr (1887-1975)
