Working

  1. 1V = I × R = 2 × 6 = 12 V

Quick answer

Ohm's law states V = I × R, and power follows as P = V × I.

The formula

V = I·R, P = V·I

Frequently asked questions

What is one ohm?

The resistance that lets one amp flow when one volt is applied across it.

Does Ohm's law apply to AC?

For resistive loads yes. Reactive circuits need impedance, which accounts for phase between voltage and current.
