Georg Simon Ohm

Georg Simon Ohm was a German physicist best known for formulating Ohm's Law, which describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits. In simple terms, it states that the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across it and inversely proportional to its resistance. This principle is fundamental in electromagnetism and is vital for designing electrical systems. Additionally, Ohm contributed to understanding sound waves in musical acoustics, explaining how vibrations in materials produce sound. His work laid the foundation for modern electrical engineering and our understanding of circuits and acoustics.
