Frequently asked questions

What is Ohm's law?

Ohm's law states that voltage equals current times resistance: V = I × R. It means the current through a conductor is proportional to the voltage across it and inversely proportional to its resistance.

How do I calculate power?

Power in watts is voltage times current: P = V × I. Using Ohm's law you can also write it as P = I²R or P = V²/R, which is why entering any two of the four values lets the calculator find power and the rest.

Which two values do I need?

Any two of voltage, current, resistance, and power. The calculator recognizes the pair you entered and applies the right formula, whether that's V and I, R and P, or any other combination.

About this tool

The Ohm's law calculator solves for voltage, current, resistance, and power from any two known values. It applies V = I × R together with the power relationships P = V × I, P = I²R, and P = V²/R, so whatever pair you enter, it fills in the remaining two. It's a quick reference for electronics, electrical work, and physics homework — for example, 12 volts across 12 ohms gives 1 amp and 12 watts. Everything is calculated in your browser.

Like most tools on UtilityBase, the ohm's law calculator runs entirely in your browser — nothing you enter is uploaded or stored on a server. It's free to use with no account required. Browse more developer tools here.
