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.

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.

What do I need to enter into the Ohm's Law Calculator?

Just 4 values: voltage (v), current (a), resistance (ω), power (w). Every field starts with a realistic example, so you can change one number at a time and watch the result update instantly.

How does the Ohm's Law Calculator work out the answer?

Ohm's law states V = I × R, and power follows as P = V × I. It applies the formula V = I·R, P = V·I and shows the working so you can check each step by hand.

Is the Ohm's Law Calculator free, and do I need an account?

It is completely free with no sign-up, no download and no usage limit. Everything is calculated in your browser, so the numbers you type never leave your device.
