About Statohms
The statohm (statΩ) is the resistance unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 1 statvolt per statampere = c² × 10⁻⁵ Ω ≈ 898.755 GΩ (exact, where c = 299 792 458 m/s). In Gaussian CGS Ohm's law takes the form R [statΩ] = V [statV] / I [statA]; the statohm appears in classical electrodynamics and plasma physics texts alongside other Gaussian-CGS units. 1 statΩ ≈ 898.755 GΩ ≈ 0.899 TΩ.
About Ohms
The ohm (Ω) is the SI derived unit of electrical resistance, equal to 1 volt per ampere (1 V/A = 1 kg·m²·A⁻²·s⁻³), named after Georg Simon Ohm who published V = IR in 1827. Common benchmarks: a standard earphone is 32 Ω, a coaxial cable has 50 or 75 Ω characteristic impedance, and a typical carbon-film resistor spans 1 Ω to 10 MΩ. The ohm is realised internationally via the quantum Hall resistance standard Rₖ = h/e² ≈ 25 812.807 Ω.
