The page says, "if the current flowing through a loop changes, it will induce a magnetic field." I think this is incorrect. Don't static currents induce magnetic fields? -- Smack ( talk) 05:41, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Is the SI multiples table really necessary? It's not as though the SI prefixes apply just to webers, they apply to all SI units; other articles on SI units don't carry this table. The table highlights that milli-, micro-, and nano-weber are the most common multiples used, which may be worth mentioning in the article (perhaps?), but the table as a whole seems superfluous. 90.209.4.167 ( talk) 14:19, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't we mention the name Weber is pronounced [veːbɛʁ]? -- 79.199.69.200 ( talk) 13:25, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
Isn't the first sentence wrong? The unit of flux density B is the Tesla, as stated in magnetic flux density, where it also says one Tesla is one Weber per square meter (1T = 1Wb/m^2). A "flux density of 1 Wb" is incorrect. The sentence should read: "a flux of 1 Wb is 1T*m^2", or more explicitly, " a flux density B through an area of 1m^2 gives a flux of 1Wb". Note also the inconsistency with the lower paragraph on derived units. El perseguidor ( talk) 17:48, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
"The weber may be defined in terms of Faraday's law, which relates a changing magnetic flux through a loop to the electric field around the loop." The loop that is being referred to if I understand correctly if just a closed circuit of conductive wire?
This could be clarified a bit but is generally indicative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by S.mielnik ( talk • contribs) 08:27, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
in the Guide for the Use of the International System of Units (SI) 2006, table B.8, there is listed a unit pole = 1.256 637 E−07 Wb. I cannot find this unit and description anywhere else. Ra-raisch ( talk) 15:24, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
Placing "N = Newton" in the chart of UNITS is malicious damage to the site? Good grief! So its not in the equation above, it is a very important item in physics and some layman at some point might wonder what an "N" is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.36.71.119 ( talk) 19:10, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
OK, explanation accepted. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.36.71.119 ( talk) 17:42, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
