Ampere the watt, the ohm and the volt. Rather than a definition in terms of the force between two current-carrying wires, it has been proposed that the ampere should be defined in terms of the rate of flow of elementary charges. Since a coulomb is approximately equal to elementary charges (such as those carried by protons, or the negative of those carried by electrons), one ampere is approximately equivalent to elementary charges moving past a boundary in one second. ( is the reciprocal of the value of the elementary charge in coulombs.) The proposed change would define 1 A as being
The Civil Wars: A Tree Is Best Measured When It Is Down and a principal writer was Lebanese poet Etel Adnan, though the collage-like libretto incorporated a diverse collection of texts. Bryars set a speech by Marie Curie, "I am among those who believe that science has a great beauty", a poem by Pope Leo XIII on the then-new art of photography, and a speech by an imaginary scientist in Jules Verne's "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea". The work was not completed or publicly performed, but Bryars incorporated a number of its arias into the later works "Effarene" and "On Photography". The Civil Wars: A Tree Is Best Measured When It Is
