Ohm's Law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. It is expressed with the formula V = I × R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.
Electrical power (P) is the rate at which electrical energy is transferred. It's calculated using the formula P = V × I. By combining this with Ohm's Law, you can derive other variations, such as P = I² × R and P = V² / R.
Ohm's Law is fundamental in electronics and electrical engineering. It's used to design circuits, determine the correct resistor size, ensure components get the right voltage, and calculate power consumption for safety and efficiency.
