Concepts

• Voltage is defined as the amount of potential energy between two points in a

circuit. One point has more charge than another. The difference in charge
between the points is called the voltage.

• Current is the rate at which charge flows.

• Resistance is the tendency to resist the flow of charge (current) of a material.

 Ohm’s Law

• Ohm’s law states the relationship between electric current and potential

difference. The current that flows through most conductors is directly

proportional to the voltage applied to it. Georg Simon Ohm, a German

physicist was the first to verify Ohm’s law experimentally.

Ohm’s law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to
the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions and
temperatures remain constant.
Ohm’s Law Statement: Ohm’s law states that the voltage across a conductor is
directly proportional to the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions
and temperature, remain constant.

Ohm’s Law Equation: V = IR, where V is the voltage across the conductor,
I is the current flowing through the conductor and R is the resistance provided
by the conductor to the flow of current.
 Ohm’s Law Magic Triangle

• You can make use of Ohm’s law magic triangle to remember the different
equations for Ohm’s law used to solve for different variables(V, I, R).
