Home > Faraday

In physics, the faraday (not to be confused with the farad) is a dimensionless unit of electrical charge; one faraday is equal to the charge of 6.02 × 1023 electrons (one mol). The faraday is no longer in general use and has been replaced by the SI unit coulomb; one faraday is equivalent to 96485.3415 coulombs.

Like the farad, the faraday was named after Michael Faraday.

Faraday constantIn physics and chemistry, the Faraday constant is the amount of electric charge of one mole of electrons. It has the symbol F, and is given by :, where N is Avogadro's number (approximately 6. 02 x 1023) and q is the charge on an electron. The value of FFaraday cageThe Faraday cage is an electrical apparatus designed to prevent the passage of electromagnetic waves, either containing them in or excluding them from its interior space. It is named for physicist Michael Faraday, who built the first one in 1836.

The rotation of the plane of polarization is proportional to the intensity of the component of the magnetic field in the direction of the beam of lighFaraday rotatorA Faraday rotator is an optical device that rotates the polarization of light due to the Faraday effect. The Faraday rotator works because one polarization of the input light is in ferromagnetic resonance with the material which causes its phase velocity
