Ohm:

  1. The Ohm is the unit of resistance in physics.
  2. One ohm is equal to the electrical resistance between two given points of an electric conductor when a potential difference of one volt is constantly maintained across the two points and the resulting current that flows through the conductor has a magnitude of one ampere, according to the International System of Units (often abbreviated to SI).
  3. Georg Simon Ohm, a German mathematician, and physicist, inspired the SI unit of electrical resistance.
