Unit Explanations
WeberWb
Source UnitThe weber (symbol: Wb) is the SI unit of magnetic flux, defined as the amount of magnetic field passing through a surface. One weber is equivalent to one volt-second, which is the magnetic flux that, when linked with a circuit, induces an electromotive force of one volt as it changes at a rate of one weber per second. This unit is crucial for understanding electromagnetic systems and their interactions with electric circuits.
Current Use
The weber is extensively used in electrical engineering and physics, particularly in the analysis of magnetic circuits and the design of electrical machines. It provides a clear quantification of magnetic flux in various applications, including transformers, inductors, and magnetic sensors.
Fun Fact
The weber is used to measure not only magnetic flux but also magnetic fields in various scientific experiments.
Tesla Square MeterT·m²
Target UnitThe Tesla square meter (T·m²) is a derived unit of measurement that quantifies magnetic flux density across a specified area. One tesla square meter represents the magnetic flux of one weber spread uniformly over an area of one square meter. It is used in various scientific and engineering fields to describe the strength of magnetic fields and their interaction with materials. The unit is essential for understanding electromagnetic phenomena and is commonly applied in physics and electrical engineering.
Current Use
The tesla square meter is widely used in fields such as electrical engineering, physics, and medical imaging. It serves as a crucial unit in calculating the magnetic flux through surfaces in devices such as MRI machines, magnetic sensors, and particle accelerators. Additionally, it is used in research settings to quantify interactions between magnetic fields and materials.
Fun Fact
The tesla is one of the few SI units named after a person.
