Ampere :: Ampere (n.) Alt. of Amper.

Joule :: "Joule (n.) A unit of work which is equal to 107 units of work in the C. G. S. system of units (ergs), and is practically equivalent to the energy expended in one second by an electric current of one ampere in a resistance of one ohm. One joule is approximately equal to 0.738 foot pounds..

Wanton :: Wanton (n.) One brought up without restraint; a pampered pet.

Fatten :: Fatten (v. i.) To grow fat or corpulent; to grow plump, thick, or fleshy; to be pampered..

Megampere :: Megampere (n.) A million amperes.

Henry :: Henry (n.) The unit of electric induction; the induction in a circuit when the electro-motive force induced in this circuit is one volt, while the inducing current varies at the rate of one ampere a second..

Ampere :: Ampere (n.) The unit of electric current; -- defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893 and by U. S. Statute as, one tenth of the unit of current of the C. G. S. system of electro-magnetic units, or the practical equivalent of the unvarying current which, when passed through a standard solution of nitrate of silver in water, deposits silver at the rate of 0.001118 grams per second. Called also the international ampere..

Amperometer :: Amperometer (n.) An instrument for measuring the strength of an electrical current in amperes.

Pampered :: Pampered (a.) Fed luxuriously; indulged to the full; hence, luxuriant..

Ammeter :: Ammeter (n.) A contraction of amperometer or amperemeter.

Pamperer :: Pamperer (n.) One who, or that which, pampers..

Milli- :: Milli- () A prefix denoting a thousandth part of; as, millimeter, milligram, milliampere..

Ohm :: Ohm (n.) The standard unit in the measure of electrical resistance, being the resistance of a circuit in which a potential difference of one volt produces a current of one ampere. As defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893, and by United States Statute, it is a resistance substantially equal to 109 units of resistance of the C.G.S. system of electro-magnetic units, and is represented by the resistance offered to an unvarying electric current by a column of mercury at the tempera

Volt :: Volt (n.) The unit of electro-motive force; -- defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893 and by United States Statute as, that electro-motive force which steadily applied to a conductor whose resistance is one ohm will produce a current of one ampere. It is practically equivalent to / the electro-motive force of a standard Clark's cell at a temperature of 15? C..

Milliampere :: Milliampere (n.) The thousandth part of one ampere.

Microampere :: Microampere (n.) One of the smaller measures of electrical currents; the millionth part of one ampere.
