What do you mesure the answer of Ohm's law in?

Ohm's law can be used to find the current, voltage or resistance in a electrical circuit. The formula is V=IR where 'V' is the Voltage measured in Volts (V), 'I' is the current measured in Amperes (A) And 'R' is the resistance, measured in Ohms (Ω)


What is ohms law formula used for?

It is used in Science: Energy and Power.


How do you wire a 2V LED to run on 12V?

Light Emitting Diodes (LED) solid state devices are current dependant. LED have ratings for the max current allowed to the LED device. A typical current allowed to a LED is 20ma. Ohms Law is used to determine the resistance required to limit the current to your desired current. The formula is used in this manner: E=12VOLTS the desired current is I = 20ma. R = E/I = 600 ohms. Where E=2 volts dc and I=20ma R= E/I = 100 Ohms.


What is the ohm unit used to measure?

Ohms measure electrical resistance. The resistance in ohms is the voltage divided by the current.


How much current flows in 10 ohms when connected to 12 volts?

Ohms are the unit of resistance you find in Ohms LAw which says Volts = Amps x Ohms. You can get a voltage drop across a resistance, but would have to know what current is being used and you would have a potentiometer in effect. You are not "converting 12V" to 10V, your are essentially loosing two volts through a resistor.


What are watts amps and ohms?

ohms is a measure of resistance(R) in a circuit. Watts is a measure of the power(P), in this case lets assume it is the power used by the resistive element (lamp, heater etc). Power(watts)=Current(Amps)x Current(amps) x Resistance(ohms) or Resistance (ohms)=Power(W)/(current x current)


What area of science uses amps and ohms?

Amps, or amperes, are a measure of electrical current; ohms are a measure of electrical resistance. Both are widely used in physics.


What is 1.2kohm resistor?

Your question is incomplete. What you meant to say is "What is the voltage drop of a 1.2K Ohm resistance?" (an Ohm is a unit of measurement, a resistor or resistance is measured in ohms.) The answer is, it depends on the current flowing through the circuit. Use the formula V=IR where V is the voltage, I is the current in amps, and R is the resistance in ohms.


What is the resistance of an electric lamp that takes in a current of 0.40 ampere when 110 volts is applied?

Ohm's Law: Resistance is voltage divided by current 110 volts divided by 0.4 amperes is 275 ohms.


What are ohms used for?

Ohms are used to measure electric resistance.


What is a 1k?

It is a passive electrical device with a resistive value of 1000 ohms, used for limiting current or dropping voltage.


What are voltage current and resistance?

They are the three components that are used in Ohms law. Knowing any two will lead to the calculation of the third.
