ohm (ōm) [for G. S. Ohm Ohm, Georg Simon , 1787–1854, German physicist. He was professor at Munich from 1852. His study of electric current led to his formulation of the law now known as Ohm's law. The unit of electrical resistance (see ohm) was named for him.

ohm

The unit of measurement of electrical resistance in a material. One ohm is the resistance in a circuit when one volt maintains a current of one amp. The symbol for ohm is the Greek letter omega. See impedance.

Ohm's Law
The equation "R=V/I" is the more streamlined version of the one developed by German physicist Georg Simon Ohm in 1827. Ohm's law is used to calculate the resistance in materials such as metal, which maintain a linear relationship between voltage and current. In addition, Ohm's formulas, which are derived from Ohm's Law, are used to calculate voltage and current if the other two measurements are known.


     Ohm's Law

     Resistance = voltage divided by current
     R = V / I   or   R = E / I


     Ohm's Formulas

     Voltage = current times resistance
     V = I * R   or   E = I * R

     Current = voltage divided by resistance
     I = V / R   or   I = E / R


         V or E = voltage (E=energy)
         I = current in amps (I=intensity)
         R = resistance in ohms


     Electric Power

     Power in watts = voltage times current
     P = V * I

ohm

the derived SI unit of electrical resistance; the resistance between two points on a conductor when a constant potential difference of 1 volt between them produces a current of 1 ampere.

ohm [ōm]

(electricity)

The unit of electrical resistance in the rationalized meter-kilogram-second system of units, equal to the resistance through which a current of 1 ampere will flow when there is a potential difference of 1 volt across it. Symbolized Ω.

ohm

The unit of electrical resistance of a conductor such that a constant current of 1 ampere in it produces a decrease in voltage across it of 1 volt.

(unit)

Ohm - The MKS unit of electrical resistance. One Ohm is the resistance of a conductor across which a potential difference of one Volt produces a current of one Ampere. Named after Georg Simon Ohm.

Ohm

the unit of electric resistance in the International System of Units (SI). It is named in honor of the German physicist G. S. Ohm.

The international symbol is Ω. One ohm is the resistance of a conductor between whose terminals a voltage of 1 volt arises when a current of 1 ampere is flowing through the conductor. The relationship between the ohm and the other units of electrical resistance is as follows: 1 Ω = 1.11 ×, 10¹² cgs electrostatic units = 10⁹ cgs electromagnetic units.
