Ohms Law
Resistance:
- opposition offered by a material to the flow of current
Ohm:
- basic unit of resistance measure equal to that resistance which allow 1 Amp of current to flow when EMF of 1 volt is applied across the resistance
Ohm’s law States:
- with constant resistance, lower voltage gives small current, high voltage gives larger current
- constant EMF, lower resistance passes large current, higher resistance passes small current
- the current flowing in a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage (EMF) and inversely proportional to resistance
I = E/R
E = I x R
R = E/I
