Definition of ampere in English:

ampere

(also A)

nounˈampɛː

A unit of electric current equal to a flow of one coulomb per second.
The SI base unit of electric current, 1 ampere is precisely defined as that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross section, and placed 1 metre apart in a vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force of 2 × 10⁻⁷ newton per metre
Example sentencesExamples
- For any object conducting electricity, one can define the resistance in ohms as the ratio of the electrical potential difference applied to the object to current passing through it in amperes.
- The energising coils, through which several hundred amperes of current flows, remains at minus 269 degrees centigrade with the help of about 300 litres of liquid helium in a special vessel called cryostat.
- Low conductivity usually indicates a small current flow, but when the total conductivity is calculated over the whole Earth's surface the atmospheric conductivity is quite large, and an appreciable current of about 2000 amperes flows.
- Now we've a problem in our experiment and that is, we have these large magnets which require 14,000 amperes of current at 1000 volts, which we get off the mains and we run it full bore.
- Why should I worry about how many amperes of electricity it takes to run an appliance?
- At its core are four electronic high-performance loads, each of which can handle a maximum current of 50 amperes.
- The tether exploited about 1 ampere at 3500 volts of electricity.
- You can calculate the number of watts required by any given device by multiplying the usual voltage times the number of amperes the appliance draws.
- The #16 gauge wire is rated to carry 13 amperes, as compared to the formerly-used # 18 gauge cords that were rated for 10 amperes.
- There is a procedure to do that with minor power lines - that is, those of less than 100 megavolt amperes and 110 kilovolts.
- The more copper and iron in the alternator, the less heat is generated, and more kilovolt amperes are capable of being produced.
- As the need to backup mission critical kilowatts grows, the amperes also grow.
- If it has one or more fuses rated above 20 amperes, someone may have tried to avoid power outages by substituting higher amperage fuses.
- Welding current can reach several thousand amperes at short circuit.
- Just as an ampere is a unit of electric current, a magneton is a unit of magnetic dipole moment.
- Just a couple hundred amperes of electricity makes it hot,’ he says.
- The amount of power used is only a few micro amperes, but the frequency of the current can vary from 5 to 2,000 Hz.
- As a result, they may be rated for 15 amperes, but they may trip at 8 or 10 amperes, because of their design, but if a circuit breaker trips at a server farm, the whole farm could go down.
- Where the conventional gyro consumes a substantial amount of electrical power the GPS compass operates from the boat's 12 volt DC bus drawing less than 2 amperes.
- A supply's capacity to provide 12V power is measured in amperes, or amps.
