Computation requires an understanding of the mathematical and scientific concepts related to Ohm’s law and should include defining the terms of the equation for Ohm’s law: E = IR; I = E/R; R = E/I.
Process/Skill Questions:
- What is the relationship of current to resistance if the voltage is held constant in a DC circuit?
- What are the base units of voltage, current, and resistance in Ohm’s law?
- What is the value of R in the equation if the circuit has a 1.7 KΩ resistor?
