Ohms Law Calculator

Ohms Law Calculator

Enter any two known values and press "Calculate" to find the other 2 values. 
Reset the field to 0 before each new calculation. 

 


Volts (E)

Amps (I)

Ohms (R)

Power (Watts)

 

Understanding Electricity-
 
If electricity were a fluid like water then:
 
Volts = PSI
Amps = GPM potential
Watts = GPM delivered
Wire size = Pipe size
Ohms = Friction losses due to length + diameter of pipe
 
With more PSI you can pump more fluid through smaller pipe.
That is why lower voltages require larger wire (larger pipe) size.
 
MORE:
 
Wire = Pipe
Capacitor = Rubber bladder
Resistor = Flow reducer
Diode = Check valve
Zener Diode = Faulty check valve
Transistor = Gate valve
Potentiometer = Diversion valve
 
 
Other stuff on the edge of explanation -
 
Induction = Sponge
Magnetism = ?????
