Charles-Augustin de Coulomb died #OTD in 1806.

He is best known for the formulation of Coulomb’s law, which states that the force between two electrical charges is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The SI unit of electric charge, the coulomb, was named in his honor in 1880. via nostr:npub1kvnpp3m60derhwpqwc09zhk3ehk48tr6agc6dk9z2vggu9sga28qpxhm73
