How Ohm's Law Works

Ohm's Law links voltage, current, and resistance.

Formula

V = I x R

Where:

  • V = Voltage in volts
  • I = Current in amperes
  • R = Resistance in ohms
  • Rearranging gives R = V / I and I = V / R. Power is P = V x I.

    Exemple Résolu

    A 12 V battery drives 0.5 A through a resistor.

    1. Resistance R = V / I = 12 / 0.5 = 24 ohms
    2. Power P = V x I = 12 x 0.5 = 6 W
