  • elektrimahtuvuse mõõtühik
  • the unit of capacitance in the International System of Electrical Units (SI units). The farad is the capacitance of a capacitor in which a charge of 1 coulomb produces 1 volt potential difference between its terminals.
Good to know
  • Üks farad (1 F) on sellise keha mahtuvus, millele tuleb anda laeng üks kulon, selleks et suurendada tema potentsiaali ühe voldi võrra.

  • elektrilise mahtuvuse erinimetusega SI tuletatud ühiku nimetus/tähis
  • SI derived unit with special name farad for capacitance
  • coherent SI unit of capacitance, defined by the unit equation F ≔ C/V, where C and V are coulomb and volt, respectively
farad
Usage examples
  • Farad on saanud nime inglise füüsiku ja keemiku Michael Faraday järgi. Üks farad on mahtuvus, mis salvestab ühe kuloni (1 C) laengut ühe voldise (1 V) pinge korral (1 F = 1 C/V). Üks farad on tavaelektroonikas väga suur mahtuvus.

Usage examples
  • 1 F = 1 C/V.
farad
Usage examples
  • The farad is named after the English physicist and chemist Michael Faraday. One farad is the capacitance that stores a charge of one coulomb (1 C) at a voltage of one volt (1 V). One farad is a very large capacitance in standard electronics.
