单词 | coulomb |
释义 | Coulombn. The designation adopted by the Paris Electric Congress in 1881, for the unit of electrical quantity; the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampère. (For this unit the name Weber had been previously introduced into partial use.) Also known as international coulomb when defined in terms of the international ampere; in 1948 this was replaced by the absolute coulomb, defined in terms of the absolute ampere and now incorporated in the International System of Units.

Heitler Quantum Theory Radiation iii. 98 For the collision of an electron with a nucleus of charge Z, the Coulomb interaction is proportional to e2Z. 1970 G. K. Woodgate Elem. Atomic Struct. ii. 9 This Coulomb interaction is of a special form with respect to its radial dependence (V(r) ∝ r−k where k = 1). Coulomb law n. (also Coulomb's law) either of two laws in electrostatics: (a) (see quot. 1908); (b) a law that like charges repel, and opposite charges attract each other, the force varying inversely as the squares of the distances between them, and proportionally to the product of the magnitudes of the charges.

If R is the outward intensity [of the electric field] at a point just outside a conductor, then R = 4πσ, where σ is the surface density of electrification on the conductor. 1938 L. B.
