What Does F Stand For?

F stands for Farad SI Unit Of Capacitance

The Farad (F) is the SI unit of capacitance, defined as the capacitance of a capacitor that holds one coulomb of electrical charge with a potential difference of one volt across its plates. It is named after the British scientist Michael Faraday and is used to quantify the ability of a capacitor to store electrical energy in an electric field. The Farad is a derived unit, represented as one farad equal to one coulomb per volt (1 F = 1 C/V).
