Learning electrodynamics here, and the book I'm reading says the following: "By definition, one coulomb of electric charge gives rise to one Coulomb of electric flux, hence Psi = Q (Coulombs)."
Yet I'm reasonably certain that flux is not simply charge, and is not measured in Coulombs alone, at least by most definitions. Everywhere else I seem to encounter flux as Volt-meters, or Newton-meter^2 / Coulomb.
Is there a way to reconcile these two definitions or is the first one simply incorrect?
