The tesla (symbol T) is the SI derived unit of magnetic field (specifically magnetic flux density). SI derived units are part of the SI system of measurement units and are derived from the seven SI base units They are derived from SI basic units/defined In Physics, a magnetic field is a Vector field that permeates space and which can exert a magnetic force on moving Electric charges The tesla is equal to one weber per square metre and was defined in 1960[1] in honor of inventor, scientist and electrical engineer Nikola Tesla. In Physics, the weber (symbol Wb ˈveɪbɚ ˈwiːbɚ is the SI unit of Magnetic flux. An inventor is a person who creates or discovers a new method form device or other useful means A scientist, in the broadest sense refers to any person that engages in a systematic activity to acquire Knowledge or an individual that engages in such practices Electrical engineering, sometimes referred to as electrical and electronic engineering, is a field of Engineering that deals with the study and application of There have already been discussions about Tesla's ethnicity on the talk page

Definition
| This SI unit is named after Nikola Tesla. There have already been discussions about Tesla's ethnicity on the talk page As with every SI unit whose name is derived from the proper name of a person, the first letter of its symbol is uppercase (T). The musical instrument is spelled Cymbal. A symbol is something --- such as an object, Picture, written word a sound a piece Capital letters or majuscules pronunciation /məˈdʒʌskyuls ˈmædʒəˌskyuls/ in the Roman alphabet A, B, C, D, When an SI unit is spelled out in English, it should always begin with a lowercase letter (tesla), except where any word would be capitalized, such as at the beginning of a sentence or in capitalized material such as a title. Lower case (also lower-case or lowercase) minuscule, or small letters are the smaller form of letters as opposed to upper Note that "degree Celsius" conforms to this rule because the "d" is lowercase. The Celsius Temperature scale was previously known as the centigrade scale.

1 tesla is equivalent to:
- 10,000 (or 104) gauss (G), used in CGS system. The ampere, in practice often shortened to amp, (symbol A is a unit of Electric current, or amount of Electric charge per second The coulomb (symbol C) is the SI unit of Electric charge. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb. The metre or meter is a unit of Length. It is the basic unit of Length in the Metric system and in the International The newton (symbol N) is the SI derived unit of Force, named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on Classical The second ( SI symbol s) sometimes abbreviated sec, is the name of a unit of Time, and is the International System of Units The volt (symbol V) is the SI derived unit of electric Potential difference or Electromotive force. In Physics, the weber (symbol Wb ˈveɪbɚ ˈwiːbɚ is the SI unit of Magnetic flux. The gauss, abbreviated as G is the Cgs unit of Magnetic field B (which is also known as "magnetic flux density" and "magnetic The centimetre-gram-second system ( CGS) is a system of physical units. Thus, 10 G = 1 mT (1 millitesla)
- 1,000,000,000 (or 109) gammas (γ), used in geophysics. Geophysics, a major discipline of Earth sciences, is the study of the Earth by quantitative physical methods especially by seismic, electromagnetic Thus, 1 γ = 1 nT (nanotesla)
