CGS e.m. unit to kiloampere
Please provide values below to convert CGS e.m. unit to kiloampere [kA], or change ↔.
CGS e.m. unit
Definition: The CGS electromagnetic unit of current, part of the system used before the adoption of SI units.
Historyandorigin: CGS system, developed for electromagnetic studies, used this unit for electric current.
CurrentUse: Now largely replaced by the ampere, but significant in early theoretical work in electromagnetism.
funfact: The CGS e.m. unit of current was key in early electromagnetism, laying the groundwork for our modern understanding of electricity!
kiloampere [kA]
Definition: A unit of electric current equivalent to 1,000 amperes.
Historyandorigin: A metric prefix 'kilo' meaning 1,000 is added to the base unit ampere.
CurrentUse: Used for large current measurements, like in industrial or electrical power systems. Found in applications such as electric power transmission and large-scale electroplating.
funfact: Kiloadmperes are often used when working with massive electrical systems such as power substations or for high-capacity machinery!

How to Convert CGS e.m. unit to kiloampere
1 CGS e.m. unit = 0.01 kiloampere [kA]
1 kiloampere [kA] = 100 CGS e.m. unit
we use cross multiplication method
CGS e.m. unit → kiloampere [kA]
1 → 0.01
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.01=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.015
