48 Ohm’s Law

Ohm’s law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.

  • I = Current in Amperes (A)
  • V = Voltage in Volts (V)
  • P = Power in Watts (W)
  • R = Resistance in Ohm (Ω)
  • Current equals Voltage divided by Resistance ([latex]\text{I}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{R}}[/latex])
  • Resistance equals Voltage divided by Current ([latex]\text{R}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{I}}[/latex])
  • Voltage equals Current times Resistance ([latex]\text{V}=\text{IR}[/latex])
