AI Thread Summary

The henry is the SI unit of inductance, defined as the inductance that produces a current increase of one ampere per second when one volt is applied across its terminals. It is directly related to magnetic induction, as it quantifies how effectively a coil or circuit can induce voltage in response to changes in current. The discussion emphasizes the relationship between voltage, current, and inductance in electrical circuits. Understanding the henry is crucial for applications involving electromagnetic fields and inductive components. The henry plays a vital role in the study of electrical engineering and physics.

The SI unit "henry"

Is a "henry" only produced by magnetic induction, in which case would produced one volt that allows the induction of one ampere per second?

Thread 'Is space stretching or is new space being created?'

Do we even know? My understanding of dark energy is that particles come into existence, exert and outward force, then vanish. My problem with that is how, of course, then how does dark energy know to push everything in the same direction? The pressure exerted would be in all directions, even if the space was moving so why isn't stuff pushed all over the sky? Thanks - rev
