In which year did Georg Simon Ohm formulate the equation I=V/R which shows the 
relationship between voltage, current and resistance? 
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 1827.

  • The Ohm's Law was given by German physicist George Simon Ohm in 1827, which states the relationship between current, resistance and voltage across an electric current. This shows the relationship between Current I, voltage V, and resistance R.
  • He found conducting his experiment that the product of the current flowing through the conductor and the resistance of the conductor determines the voltage drop over that conductor in the circuit.
