What does Ohm's Law state regarding the relationship between current and voltage?
Directly proportional
Ohm's Law applies to all types of electrical circuits.
False
Arrange the variables in Ohm's Law by their symbols and units:
1️⃣ V (Volts)
2️⃣ I (Amperes)
3️⃣ R (Ohms)
In Ohm's Law,
V
represents the potential difference measured in
volts
The unit for current (I) in Ohm's Law is
amperes
Match the variables in Ohm's Law with their definitions:
Voltage (V) ↔️ Potential difference across a conductor
Current (I) ↔️ Rate of flow of electric charge
Resistance (R) ↔️ Opposition to current flow
In Ohm's Law,
R
represents the resistance measured in
ohms
