- Abvolt [r]: Unit of voltage difference in the cgs-emu system of units; symbol abV; 1 abV = 1 erg/(s⋅abA) = 10−8 V. [e]
- Ampere (unit) [r]: Unit of electric current; symbol A; one of the seven SI base units. [e]
- Central processing unit [r]: The component in an electronic computer that performs all the active processing of its programming directions, and manipulation of data; this includes performing calculations on numbers, and determining which particular steps to perform. [e]
- Electric field [r]: force acting on an electric charge—a vector field. [e]
- Electricity [r]: The flow or presence of electric charge; the flow of electricity is an important carrier of energy. [e]
- Electromagnetic wave [r]: a change, periodic in space and time, of an electric field E(r,t) and a magnetic field B(r,t); a stream of electromagnetic waves, referred to as electromagnetic radiation, can be seen as a stream of massless elementary particles, named photons. [e]
- Electromagnetism [r]: Phenomena and theories regarding electricity and magnetism. [e]
- Energy (science) [r]: A measurable physical quantity of a system which can be expressed in joules (the metric unit for a quantity of energy) or other measurement units such as ergs, calories, watt-hours or Btu. [e]
- Farad [r]: SI unit of capacitance; symbol F: 1 F = 1 C/V [e]
- Gauss (unit) [r]: Gaussian unit of magnetic flux density B; symbol G; 1 G = 1 Mx/cm2 = 10 000 T. [e]
- Gaussian units [r]: A centimeter-gram-second system of units often used in electrodynamics and special relativity. [e]
- International Space Station [r]: A space station currently in earth orbit assembled collaboratively by the space agencies of many nations. [e]
- International System of Units [r]: Metric unit system based on the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole and candela. [e]
- Joule [r]: The SI unit of energy (symbol: J) which is a measure of the capacity to do work or generate heat. [e]
- Krytron [r]: An extremely fast device for brief switching of high power electrical signals, with the most strategic being that it is a key component in the design of the triggering systems for many nuclear weapons [e]
- Momentum [r]: mass of a particle times its velocity (a vector). [e]
- Ohm [r]: SI unit of electrical impedance or, in the direct current case, electrical resistance, named after Georg Simon Ohm. [e]
- Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model [r]: ISO standard that describes a layered approach to designing computer networks [e]
- Pentium 1 [r]: A popular series of single chip computers, descended from intel's 4004 [e]
- Reduction potential [r]: The tendency of a chemical species to acquire electrons and thereby be reduced. [e]
- Siemens (unit) [r]: The SI unit of electrical conductance. [e]
- Statvolt [r]: Unit of electric voltage; symbol statV; 1 statV = 10−6×c volt; c speed of light in m/s. [e]
- Viking program [r]: The successful mission of space probes to Mars, Viking 1 and Viking 2, each designed to study the planet, and launched 20 August 1975, and 9 September 1975 respectively. [e]
- Voltage [r]: A quantity in physics that describes how much energy is needed to move an electrically charged object within an electric field. [e]
- Watt (unit) [r]: SI unit of power; symbol W; 1 W = 1 J/s = 1 A⋅V [e]
