What Is Ohm’s Law?

Ohm’s Law describes the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit.

The Formula

V = I × R

Why It Matters in Medical Equipment

Understanding Ohm’s Law helps biomedical technicians troubleshoot equipment, measure electrical values, and ensure safe operation.

Real-World Example

If a device has a resistance of 10 ohms and a voltage of 100 volts, the current would be 10 amps.
