Ohm's law is used to calculate which of the following?

In the formula V = I × R, which variable represents resistance?

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.
