Okay, now we’re going to talk about Ohm’s

fundamental equation in the whole world of
electric circuitry and I’m going to explain this
in the context of a diagram of a simple circuit.
Now what do you see in this picture?
Okay, Thank you! So whenever you have  The three variables to consider are

variables to consider. Anyone who can
identify those three variables?
So there’s the voltage. Now what is voltage?  It is a force or a pressure forcing the

current to flow. And the symbol for voltage is
V and is measured in volts and the symbol for
volts is V.

Now there’s what we call Resistance. Any  Resistance is the electrical quantity

a material.
Okay, Resistance is what exactly the name
implies its resistance to current flow. The
symbol for resistance is R and is measured in
ohms and the symbol for ohms is omega (Ω).
The third thing to consider is the current. So  Current is the rate per speed of flow
what are your ideas about current? of electrons through a circuit.
Current is the flow of electrons through a
circuit. The symbol for current is I and is
measured in Amps and the symbol for Amps
is A.
Now here is Ohm’s Law these three things-
the Voltage, the Resistance, and the Current
are all related by a nice simple mathematical
equation and this is it V = IxR V is the voltage,
I is the current and R is the resistance.And
this equation is called OHM’S LAW this is
named after a person Georg Simon Ohm.
Who is Georg Simon Ohm?  He is a German Physicist who
conducted an electrical experiment.
He was conducting an experiment and he
found experimentally that the current
flowing through a wire is dependent on the
voltage and he was doing some
experimentation on his own and he realized
that The current is directly proportional to
the voltage,(I=V) in other words if one gets
bigger, the other gets bigger. If you double
the voltage that would double the current.
He also found that The current is inversely
𝟏
proportional to the resistance.(𝑰 = 𝑹 ).This
means putting a bigger number for R will give
you a smaller value for I.
𝑉
These two ideas, The current is directly  𝑉 = 𝐼𝑥𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑅 = 𝐼
proportional to the voltage (I=V) and The
current is inversely proportional to the
𝟏
resistance (𝑰 = 𝑹 ) can be combine and we
𝑽
can write it like this (𝑰 = 𝑹 ) and that’s Ohm’s
Law. Aside from this equation we also have
another equation. Anyone who can state
those two equations?
 𝑽
Those three equations 𝑰 = ,𝑽 = 𝑰𝒙𝑹 ,
𝑹
𝑽
𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑹 = 𝑰 are all the same and that is
Ohm’s Law which states that “The current is
directly proportional to the voltage and
inversely proportional to the resistance”

Now let’s take a look at a simple example  A small light bulb is designed to run
