Aclaratoria:

Como bien ha señalado el compañero tristar estas dos unidades van MULTIPLICADAS, pensé que había quedado claro cuando en mi explicación hago énfasis en la primera línea en la palabra "producto".

Hago sin embargo esta aclaratoria pues en efecto al colocar amperios/ampere por segundo se interpreta como la cantidad de amperios que utilizados en un segundo, es decir significa la unidad intensidad entre la unidad tiempo.

Valga pues la corrección y la explicación.
