Explanation

• Farad (F) is the SI unit of capacitance of a capacitor.
• Capacitance is the ability of a capacitor to store electric charge.
• One farad is equal to one coulomb of charge stored per one volt of potential difference.
• The unit is named after scientist Michael Faraday.

Explanation

• The unit of pressure is N/m² (Newton per square meter).
• It is also called Pascal (Pa).
• Pressure means force applied per unit area.
• Higher force or smaller area increases pressure.
