    Prefixes are used to denote multiples or fractions of standard metric units. For example, milli (m) means 1/1000, micro (μ) means 1/1000000, kilo (K) means 1000, and mega (M) means 1000000. Common electronics abbreviations include R for resistance, L for inductance, C for capacitance, E for voltage, V for voltage, A for gain, Hz for cycles per second, and Ω for ohms. Ohm's law states that current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage (V) applied and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor. It is expressed by the equation I=V/R

    Ohm's law - states that the current through a conductor


    between two points is directly proportional to the
    potential difference across the two points. Introducing the
    constant of proportionality, the resistance,[1] one arrives
    at the usual mathematical equation that describes this
    relationship:[2] Example:

    Solve the current:

    Given: Formula: I = V/R


    where I is the current through the conductor in units of
    amperes, V is the potential difference measured across V = 10 V Solution: I =V/R
    the conductor in units of volts, and R is the resistance of
    R = 1KΩ
    the conductor in units of ohms. More specifically, Ohm's
    I=? I = 10 V/ 1KΩ
    law states that the R in this relation is constant,
    independent of the current.[3]
    I = 0.01 A or 10mA
    The law was named after the German physicist Georg
    Ohm, who, in a treatise published in 1827, described
    measurements of applied voltage and current through
    simple electrical circuits containing various lengths of
    wire. He presented a slightly more complex equation
    than the one above (see History section below) to explain
    his experimental results. The above equation is the
    modern form of Ohm's law.
