Question

what is ohms law?

Open in App
Solution

Hi Tejaswini!

Ohm's law states that, under constant temperature, voltage drop (V) across a conductor is directly proportional to the current (I) flowing through it.

That is, V α I

Or, V= a constant × I

The constant of proportionality is actually fixed for a given conductor, which is known as the resistance, R.

So, V= IR

Cheers!!
