Georg Simon Ohm in whose honour we have the famous Ohm’s Law, hailed from which country?

Georg Simon Ohm in whose honour we have the famous Ohm’s Law, hailed from which country? Correct Answer Germany

The correct answer is option 1: The famous physicist Georg Simon Ohm hailed from Germany.

  • Ohm was born on March 16, 1789, in Erlangen, Bavaria.
  • While teaching in Jesuits College he undertook the experiments on Newly discovered phenomenon of Electromagnetism.
  • He observed the dependence of magnetic flux on the conductor material.
  • Later in 1827, he gave a law establishing the relationship between Voltage, Electric Current and Resistance but he was severely criticized for this and was also thrown out of his job.
  • But in 1841, the importance of his study was recognised and in 1849 he was offered a position of Experimental Physics Professor at the University of Munich.
  • The unit of Resistance has been named after him as 'Ohm'.

 Ohm's Law:

It states that amount electric current through passing a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across two ends of it. Following its the mathematical expression for Ohm's Law.

V = IR.
