Ohm's Law HAI KYA?

Key word hai proportional: voltage double karo, current double ho jaata hai — jab tak constant rahe (jiske liye constant temperature chahiye).


YEH SACH KYU HAI? (First principles se derivation)

Hum sirf state nahi karte — hum ise build karte hain.


KAISE apply karein — triangle trick

Teeno forms ek hi equation par algebra hain:

Common Mistakes (Steel-manned)


V–I Graph padhna


Active Recall

Recall Q: Ohm's Law words aur symbols mein state karo.

Ohmic conductor se guzarne wala current constant temperature par us par lage voltage ke directly proportional hota hai: .

Recall Q: I aur R ke liye rearrange karo.

aur .

Recall Q: Resistance kya hai agar 8 V par 4 A flow kare?

.

Recall Q: Temperature constant kyun honi chahiye?

Kyunki heating R ko change karti hai (zyada lattice vibration → zyada electron collisions → higher R), jo proportionality tod deta hai.

Recall Q: Ek ohmic resistor ke V–I graph par gradient kya represent karta hai?

Resistance .

Recall Feynman: ek 12-saal ke bacche ko explain karo.

Socho kids ko slide par push kar rahe ho. Voltage hai kitni steep slide banate ho (push). Current hai kitne kids har second neeche pohunchte hain. Resistance hai slide kitni sticky/rough hai. Zyada steep banao (zyada voltage) toh zyada kids slide karte hain (zyada current). Zyada sticky banao (zyada resistance) toh kam pohunchte hain. Formula bas kehta hai: steepness = kids-per-second × stickiness.


80/20 — Woh 20% jo kabhi nahi bhoolna

  1. aur uske do rearrangements.
  2. Units: V, A, Ω — pehle mA/kΩ convert karo.
  3. Ohmic ⇒ R constant ⇒ straight-line V–I graph, gradient = R.
  4. V across hota hai (parallel), I through hota hai (series).

R nikalo: 9 V, 0.5 A
18 Ω
Wire heat hone par R kyun barhta hai?
Atoms zyada vibrate karte hain → zyada electron collisions → higher resistance
Kya filament lamp ohmic hai?
Nahi — heat hone par R barhta hai, isliye V–I curve bend hoti hai

Connections

  • Electric Current — formula mein (charge flow per second)
  • Potential Difference (Voltage), energy per unit charge
  • Resistance, plus resistivity aur geometry
  • Series and Parallel Circuits — resistances combine karna, jahan V/I placement matter karta hai
  • Power in Circuits (P = VI) — Ohm's Law ke saath combine hokar deta hai
  • Non-ohmic Components — diodes, filament lamps jahan R vary karta hai
