	Statcoulomb
		The statcoulomb (statC) or electrostatic unit (esu) is the physical unit for electrical charge used in the cgs system of units.
		The statcoulomb is defined as follows: if two objects each carry a charge of 1 statC and are 1cm apart, they will repel each other with a force of 1 dyne.
		Several other laws of electromagnetism also become easier when all quantities are expressed in cgs units; this is the main reason that the cgs system of units is still in use in physics and electrical engineering.

		The statcoulomb (statC) or franklin (Fr) or electrostatic unit of charge (esu) is the physical unit for electrical charge used in the cgs electrostatic system of units.
		As a consequence, the square of the speed of light appears explicitly in some of the equations interrelating quantities in this system.
		Note that in order for the Coulomb's law formula to work, the dimension of statcoulombs must be [mass]

	statcoulomb - a definition from Whatis.com
		The statcoulomb (abbreviated statC) is the unit of electric charge quantity in the cgs (centimeter/gram/second) system.
		When two objects, carrying like electrical charges of 1 statC each, are placed so their charge centers are one centimeter (1 cm) apart, the objects repel each other with a force of one dyne (1 dyn).
		The statcoulomb is the basis for the system of electrostatic units (esu).

	EXPERIMENT 10
		In the electrostatic system forces are expressed in dynes, distances in centimeters, and the unit of charge, called the statcoulomb, is chosen of such magnitude that the proportionality constant in coulomb’s law is equal to unity.
		When all quantities in equation (2) are unity the definition of the electrostatic unit (esu) of charge or statcoulomb is indicated.
		The factor K in coulomb’s law, called the dielectric constant of the medium, is assigned a value of 1 for vacuum.

		What this means specifically is that in cgs electrostatic units, the unit of charge or statcoulomb, is defined as such a quantity of charge that the Coulomb force constant is set to 1.
		That is, for two point charges, each with 1 statcoulomb spaced apart by 1 centimeter, the electrostatic force between them will be, by definition, precisely one dyne.
		In cgs electrostatic units, a statcoulomb is the same as a centimeter times square root of dyne.
