The SI unit for magnetic flux is the Weber (Wb). The Weber is named after Wilhelm Eduard Weber, a German physicist who discovered that a changing magnetic field could induce an electric current in a nearby conductor. The SI unit of flux density is the Tesla (T), which is equal to one weber per square meter.
The SI unit is the international system of units. It was established by the General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1960. The SI unit is based on the meter, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela. The SI unit is used in many fields such as science, engineering, and medicine.
The advantages of using the SI unit are that it provides a common language for scientists from different countries to communicate with each other; it makes research comparisons easier; it facilitates international trade, and it helps to ensure safety standards are met. For example, if two medicines have different dosages but use the same units (such as milligrams), then they can be safely compared without any confusion about which one is stronger.
There are some disadvantages to using the SI unit too. One disadvantage is that not all countries have adopted the system yet so there can still be some confusion when communicating internationally. Another disadvantage is that some people may find memorizing all those prefixes (such as micro- or nano-) difficult!
Magnetic fluxes are usually measured in units of Weber (Wb), with 1 Wb = 1 T · m2. For example, the magnetic field of Earth at its surface produces a total flux of about 7 × 1015 Wb, or 70 Zettawebers (ZW). Magnetic fields can also be expressed in terms of (A) amperes per meter; (A) one ampere per meter corresponds to 10−3 Wb/m2.
