OHM
As said earlier, the ohm is the unit
of measure of a device's opposition to the flow of current. One ohm
of resistance will allow only one amp of current
to flow through a circuit when one volt of electrical
force is applied to the circuit. If I am redundant
in some of the definitions, it is to help to make things clearer.
Use the program to calculate the current flow through a resistor.
1. This calculator will show you how the voltage applied to a resistor and the
resistor's value determine the current flow through the resistor.
2. You may manually enter the the voltage and resistance.
3. Notice how current flow INCREASES as the voltage increases and resistance decreases. You should also notice how the current flow DECREASES as the voltage decreases and resistance increases.
You should remember:
1.The ohm is the unit of measure of a devices opposition to the flow of electrical current.
