1887Ayrton & Perry in Nature 9 June 131/2 Hence we are driven to suggesting a temporary name for the unit, and as the first three letters in ‘second’ are common to the name in English, French, German, Italian, &c., and ohm is also common, we venture to suggest ‘secohm’ as a provisional name. 1948Atlantic Monthly May 613/2 The motion to adopt ‘henry’ as the name of this unit..was seconded by..Professor Ayrton, who had himself, a few years ago, proposed the word ‘sec-ohm’ as being a proper name for the unit of induction. 1963Jerrard & McNeill Dict. Sci. Units 127 The secohm was equal to the product of one legal ohm and one second and its magnitude was about the same as a henry. |
