coulombs
Electric charge measures
Coulombs is the plural of coulomb, the standard unit of electric charge in physics.
One coulomb equals the charge transported by one ampere of current in one second.
Named after French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb.
The battery stores about 5,000 coulombs of charge.
