Q) What is the voltage across a 2-ohm resistor if a current of 0.5 amperes flows through it?
A) 1 volt
NJ2X Notes:
Ohm's Law was discovered by Georg Simon Ohm and is worth committing to memory:
E = I * R
or by manipulating the terms algebraically:
I = E / R
or
R = E / I
In this example:
E = I * R
E = 0.5 amperes * 2 ohms = 1 volt
