Weber (unit) Weber (unit) In physics, the weber (symbol: Wb) is the SI unit of magnetic flux. A "flux density" of one Wb/m (one weber per square metre) is one tesla. The weber is named after the German physicist Wilhelm Eduard Weber (1804–1891). The weber may be defined in terms of Faraday's law, which relates a changing magnetic flux through a loop to the electric field around the loop. A change in flux of one weber per second will induce an electromotive force of one volt (produce an electric potential difference of one volt across two open-circuited terminals). Officially, Weber (unit of
Spectral flux density approach defines flux density as a vector at a point of space and time prescribed by the investigator. To distinguish this approach, one might speak of the 'full spherical flux density'. In this case, nature tells the investigator what is the magnitude, direction, and sense of the flux density at the prescribed point. For the flux density vector, one may write where formula_2 denotes the spectral radiance (or specific intensity) at the point formula_3 at time formula_4 and frequency formula_5, formula_6 denotes a variable unit vector with origin at the point formula_3, formula_8 denotes an element of solid angle around
