About Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law is a fundamental principle in electrical engineering that describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits.

Key Formulas:

  • V = IR - Voltage equals current times resistance
  • I = V/R - Current equals voltage divided by resistance
  • R = V/I - Resistance equals voltage divided by current
  • P = VI - Power equals voltage times current
  • P = I²R - Power equals current squared times resistance
  • P = V²/R - Power equals voltage squared divided by resistance

Electrical Concepts:

  • Voltage (V): Electrical potential difference, measured in volts
  • Current (I): Flow of electrical charge, measured in amperes
  • Resistance (R): Opposition to current flow, measured in ohms
  • Power (P): Rate of energy transfer, measured in watts

Common Applications:

  • Circuit design and analysis
  • Electrical safety calculations
  • Power consumption estimation
  • Component selection
  • Troubleshooting electrical systems

Units:

  • Voltage: Volts (V)
  • Current: Amperes (A)
  • Resistance: Ohms (Ω)
  • Power: Watts (W)
