Ohms Law

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points.

Amps = Volts / Ohms Amps = current flowing from (+) to (-) Volts = potential difference between (+) to (-) Ohms = resistence of the conductor

Ohm unit: when the difference between the (+) and (-) poles is 1.0 Volt, X# Ohms of resistence are needed to conduct 1 Amp
