Tesla (unit) One tesla is equivalent to: One tesla is equal to 1 V·s/m. This can be shown by starting with the speed of light in vacuum, "c" = (εμ), and inserting the SI values and units for "c" (), the vacuum permittivity ε (), and the vacuum permeability μ (). Cancellation of numbers and units then produces this relation. For the relation to the units of the magnetising field (ampere per metre or Oersted), see the article on permeability. Tesla (unit) The tesla (symbol T) is a derived unit of the magnetic field strength (also, magnetic flux density) in the International
Magnetic field the area times the magnetic field normal to that area. (This definition of magnetic flux is why is often referred to as "magnetic flux density".) The negative sign represents the fact that any current generated by a changing magnetic field in a coil produces a magnetic field that "opposes" the "change" in the magnetic field that induced it. This phenomenon is known as Lenz's law. This integral formulation of Faraday's law can be converted into a differential form, which applies under slightly different conditions. This form is covered as one of Maxwell's equations below. Similar to the way that a
