3. Ohm’s Law Statement
The current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to potential
difference across the ends provided the physical state (such as temperature) remains
constant.
Mathematical Form :
The ohm’s law can be expressed as
I V
𝟏
I = V
𝑹
V=IR
Where R is the constant of proportionally and is called Resistance of Conductor.
4. Resistance And its Unit
The opposition offered to the flow of charge through a conductor is called
resistance.
Unit :
The S
Iunit of resistance isOhm.it can be expressed as
R= 𝑉

Ohm :
Resistanceis said to be one ohm when one ampere currentpasses through the
conductor due to the potential differenceof 1volt across its ends.
5. Applications of Ohm’s Law
Ohm’s law has many practical applications in electrical and
electronics engineering including :
▶ Circuit Design and analysis
Ohm's law is used to calculate the required resistance, current, or
voltage for a given circuit.
