ampere

ampere: [19] This international term for a unit of electrical current derives from the name of André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836), the French physicist and mathematician. It was officially adopted by the Congrès Électrique in Paris in 1881. Ampère himself is best remembered for first making the distinction between electrical current and voltage, and for explaining magnetism in terms of electrical currents. The term ammeter ‘current-measuring device’ [19] was based on ampere.

ampere (n.)

1881, "the current that one volt can send through one ohm," from French ampère, named for French physicist André-Marie Ampère (1775-1836). Shortened form amp is attested from 1886.

; ampere 安培

1881年巴黎国际电学会议通过-项决议，为了纪念对电磁学作出巨大贡献的法国物理学家Andre Marie Ampere(1775—1836)，电流强度的单位以他的姓氏命名为ampere，口语常作amp，汉语译为“安培”，简称“安"。在此以前为了纪念意大利物理学家Alessandro volta(1745—1827)，电压单位已定名为volt，汉语作“伏特”或简称“伏"。另外两个电学的常用单位名称，即电阻单位ohm(欧姆)和电的功率单位watt(瓦特)则得名于德国物理学家Georg Simon Ohm(1787—1854)和英国发明家James Watt(1736—1819)。
