Ohm law

Ohm's Law relates the voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical
circuit. Here are the formulas:

1. V = IR - This is the most common way to express Ohm's Law. It states that
the voltage (V) across a conductor is equal to the current (I) flowing through it
multiplied by the resistance (R) of the conductor.
2. I = V/R - This formula is used to find the current (I) when you know the voltage
(V) and resistance (R).
3. R = V/I - This formula is used to find the resistance (R) when you know the
voltage (V) and current (I).

These three formulas allow you to calculate any one of the three quantities (voltage,
current, or resistance) if you know the other two.

Additionally, there's a mnemonic tool to remember these formulas easily. It's called
the "Ohm's Law Triangle":

Imagine a triangle with "V" at the top, "I" on the left, and "R" on the right. You can
cover any one symbol with your finger, and the formula to solve for that symbol is the
product of the remaining two visible symbols.
