Ohm’s Law and Electrical Power Equations

Transparent mathematical methodology explained in plain English.

V = I × R | P = V × I = I²R = V² / R

Governs linear electrical circuits relating potential difference (V), charge flow (I), resistance (R), and energy dissipation rate (P).

Variables Explained:

  • V: Voltage (Volts).
  • I: Current (Amperes).
  • R: Resistance (Ohms, Ω).
  • P: Power (Watts).
Real Project Example

12V Circuit with 4Ω Resistance

Finding current draw and wattage.

Sample Project Inputs:
Voltage: 12V
Resistance: 4Ω
Step-by-Step Calculation:
  1. Current I = V / R = 12 / 4 = 3 Amperes.
  2. Power P = V × I = 12 × 3 = 36 Watts.
Calculated Answer: Current = 3.0 Amps; Power = 36.0 Watts.
