Ohms Law
Ohm’s Law
It states that current flowing between two points in a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between the two points.
i.e., 1 ∝ V, provided temperature is constant ⇒ v / I = constant (R)
⇒ V = |R
The constant ‘R’ is called resistant of the conductor.
Ohm’s Law is not universal (i.e., all conductors do not obey Ohm’s law.) Conductors obeying Ohm’s law are called Ohmic conductors.
