Electric Charge

Key Questions

• What is the SI unit to express the charge possessed by an object?

  Answer:

  Coulombs

  Explanation:

  The #"SI"# unit of charge is the coulomb, and is denoted by #"C"#. One coulomb is the charge transported by a constant current of one ampere per second.

  One coulomb is the total charge of approximately #6.242*10^18# protons.
