Why Current(Ampere) is chosen as Fundamental Quanties not Charge(coulomb) ?..

Answer / siva kumar

Current is flow of electrons/charge with respect to time i.e.,
6.241 × 10^18 electrons, or one coulomb passing through a
conductor in one second is called 1 Ampere. 1 Ampere = 1
coulomb/sec

Why Current(Ampere) is chosen as Fundamental Quanties not Charge(coulomb) ?..

Answer / narendra mishra

amperes can be broken down
into coulombs and seconds, the coulomb cannot be broken
down (except to a
specific count of electrons or protons). Why does there
seem to be some
contradiction between the definition of a fundamental
quantity (a quantity
that can't be described in terms of another quantity)

Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
