1.256637
Explanation
## Step1The problem involves converting the unit of magnetic potential from the CGS system to the SI system. Specifically, we are converting the unit of magnetic potential, the gilbert (Gi), to ampere-turns (A⋅t) in the SI system.## Step2One gilbert is defined as
Oersted-cm in the CGS system. ## Step3The Oersted is a unit of magnetic field strength, and 1 Oersted equals
ampere-turns per meter in the SI system. ## Step4Therefore, 1 gilbert is equivalent to
x
=
ampere-turns.## Step5The value of
is approximately 3.14159.## Step6Calculating
gives us a value close to 1.256637 ampere-turns.
