Question

What are the three forms of Ohm's law?


Open in App
Solution

Ohm's law:

  • Ohm's law asserts that if all physical conditions and temperatures are constant, the voltage across a conductor is precisely proportional to the current flowing through it.
  • Mathematically, this current-voltage relationship is written as,

V=I.R

  • In the equation, the constant of proportionality, R, is called Resistance and has units of ohms, with the symbol Ω.
  • The same formula can be rewritten in order to calculate the current and resistance respectively as follows:
  • I=VR
  • Another form of Ohm's law is:
  • R=VI

Thus, these are the three forms of Ohm's law.
