3 Quantities
1. Current
2. Voltage
3. Resistance
Current

 Current refers to the quantity/volume

of electrical flow.
Voltage

 is the work done on the charges to make

them move
Resistance

 refers to the hindrance experienced by

charges as they flow through the wires
and loads of circuits
Ohm’s Law

CURRENT is directly proportional to VOLTAGE

and inversely proportional to RESISTANCE
Georg Simon Ohm
Solving Problems
Using:

Ohm’s
Law
Where:
Symbol V is Voltage unit V
Symbol R is Resistance unit Ω
Symbol I is Current unit A
1.) Find the current I through a resistor of
resistance r= 2 Ω if the voltage across the
resistor is 6 V.

Req’d? I
Formula & Solution: I= == 3 A (Note:
Symbol for current is I but the unit is A)
2.) In the DVOREF Room 102 Wirings has a Voltage
of 75 V and a current of 12 A. Find the Resistance
of the DVOREF Room 102?

Req’d? R
Formula: R=
Solution: == 6.25 Ω
3.) A 3 V Potential difference is applied across
a 6 Ω resistor. What is the current that flows
into the resistor?

Req’d? I
Formula: I=
Solution: ==0.5 A
4.) A current of 2.0 A passes through a 1.4 kΩ
resistor. What is the voltage across it?

Req’d? V
Formula:V= I R
Solution: = (0.2 A) (1.4 × 1000Ω)
= 280 V
5.) In a circuit, the potential drop across the
10 kΩ resistor is 100 V. What is the current
through the resistor?

Req’d? I
Formula: I=
Solution: ==0.01 A
