Ohm's Law Calculator
Ohm’s Law is a set of formulas used in electronics to calculate an unknown amount of current, voltage or reistance. It was named after the German physicist Georg Simon Ohm. Ohm's law is important in learning the basics of electronic theory required to get your amateur radio license.

Ohms Law is used to calculate a missing value in a circuit. Using the figure below you can easily remember the 3 basic formulas for Ohm's Law.
The values in the formulas are as follows: E=Voltage   I=Current   R=Resistance


Just cover the value you need to find, then multiply or divide the others as the figure shows. E=I*R or I=E/R or R=V/I.
Use the calculator below to verify your calculations.
