What is Ohm's Law with Current, Resistance and Power?

Ohm's Law with Current, Resistance and Power is a fundamental principle in electrical engineering that relates voltage, current, resistance, and power in an electrical circuit. It combines Ohm's Law (V = I × R) with the power equation (P = V × I) to provide a comprehensive understanding of electrical relationships.

The Formulas

The key formulas for Ohm's Law with Current, Resistance and Power are:

  • V = I × R (Ohm's Law)
  • P = V × I (Power equation)
  • P = I² × R (Power in terms of current and resistance)
  • P = V² / R (Power in terms of voltage and resistance)

Where:

  • V is voltage in volts (V)
  • I is current in amperes (A)
  • R is resistance in ohms (Ω)
  • P is power in watts (W)
