Georg Simon Ohm, a German physicist and mathematician, is well-known for his significant contributions to the field of electricity. As a school teacher, he utilized Alessandro Volta’s newly invented electrochemical cell to conduct research. Ohm’s groundbreaking discovery of the direct relationship between voltage and electric current in a conductor ultimately led to the establishment of Ohm’s law. This law stipulates that the electric current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied across it. Ohm’s remarkable work in electrical theory is commemorated through the naming of the unit of electrical resistance, the ohm, in his honor.
