I see the voltaic pile produces a voltage of about 1 volt, but not exactly. From this wiki article, a volt is 1 amp, at 1 watt, so it must be also 1 ohm. But I don't get the second part of 1 newton per coulomb across two infinite planes spaced 1 meter apart. Can you clarify?
"One volt is defined as the difference in electric potential between two points of a conducting wire when an electric current of one ampere dissipates one watt of power between those points.[2] It is also equal to the potential difference between two parallel, infinite planes spaced 1 meter apart that create an electric field of 1 newton per coulomb."
