    Study Notes

    Understanding Ohm's Law

    • Ohm's law defines the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electric circuit with the formula V = I × R.
    • Voltage (V) is measured in volts (V), current (I) in amperes (A), and resistance (R) in ohms (Ω).
    • This law illustrates that current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied, assuming constant temperature.

    Application of Ohm's Law

    • To determine voltage, current, or resistance in a circuit, use rearranged formulas:
      • Voltage: V = I × R
      • Current: I = V / R
      • Resistance: R = V / I

    Ohm's Discovery

    • Georg Simon Ohm discovered the fundamental relationship in electric circuits leading to the formulation of Ohm’s law.
    • The significance lies in the ability to analyze and predict behavior in electrical circuits.

    Worked Examples

    • Example to calculate Voltage:
      • Given I = 0.5 A and R = 20 Ω, V = 0.5 A × 20 Ω = 10 V.
    • Example to calculate Current:
      • For a load with R = 500 Ω connected to a 230 V supply, I = 230 V / 500 Ω = 0.46 A.

    Units of Measurement

    • Common electrical units:
      • micro (M): 1 M = 0.001 A
      • kilo (k): 1 k = 1000 Ω
      • Mega (M): 1 M = 1,000,000 Ω

    Practice Questions

    • Engage with practice problems to reinforce understanding of Ohm's law:
      • Calculate voltage if I = 0.5 A and R = 100 Ω. Result: V = 50 V.
      • Find current if V = 110 V and R = 550 Ω. Result: I = 0.2 A.
      • Determine resistance if V = 230 V and I = 1.2 A. Result: R ≈ 191.67 Ω.
      • Compute current if V = 24 V and R = 10 kΩ. Result: I = 0.0024 A.
