Ohm's Law and Basic Circuit Calculations
Ohm's Law is a cornerstone of electrical engineering, forming the basis for understanding how voltage, current, and resistance interact in a circuit. The law states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is directly proportional to the current (I) flowing through it, with the proportionality constant being the resistance (R). This relationship is expressed mathematically as V = I * R. Mastering Ohm's Law allows you to analyze and design electrical circuits, predict circuit behavior, and troubleshoot problems efficiently.

The ohms_law function above lets you calculate voltage, current, or resistance by providing any two of the three values. If you need to find the voltage, pass values for current and resistance; the function multiplies these to return the voltage. If you need to find current, provide voltage and resistance; the function divides voltage by resistance. Similarly, if resistance is unknown, the function divides voltage by current. This approach is practical for analyzing simple circuits, checking calculations, or automating repetitive circuit analysis tasks.

1. What is the formula for Ohm's Law?
2. Which parameter can be calculated if voltage and resistance are known?
3. Why is Ohm's Law fundamental for circuit analysis?
