farad

Also known as F

The farad (symbol: F) is the unit of electrical capacitance, the ability of a body to store an electrical charge, in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 1 coulomb per volt (C/V). It is named after the English physicist Michael Faraday (1791–1867). In SI base units 1 F = 1 kg−1⋅m−2⋅s4⋅A2.

AI overview

A farad is the standard unit used to measure capacitance, which is how much electrical charge something can store. It's named after the English physicist Michael Faraday and is defined as one coulomb of charge per volt of electrical potential.
