Ohm's Law is a fundamental principle in electrical engineering and physics that describes the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit. It is named after the German physicist Georg Simon Ohm, who first formulated the law. Ohm's Law is expressed by the simple mathematical equation:

V = I x R

Where:

  • V is the voltage across the circuit (measured in volts),
  • I is the current flowing through the circuit (measured in amperes), and
  • R is the resistance of the circuit (measured in ohms).

Ohm's Law is particularly useful for calculating and understanding the behavior of electrical circuits, and it provides a foundational concept for the analysis and design of electronic systems.
