The German physicist Georg Simon Ohm (1789-1854) was the discoverer of the law, named for him, which states the exact relationship of potential and current in electric conduction. Georg Ohm was born on March 16, 1789, in Erlangen, Bavaria, the eldest...

A single discovery established Georg Ohm's claim to fame, though a disastrous decision nearly robbed him of it. Ohm, who was born on March 16, 1789 in Erlangen, Bavaria, was the son of a self-educated locksmith. Ohm's father had a great interest in...

1787-1854 German physicist who quantified the current flow and the potential difference (or voltage) in an electric conductor and found these to be directly proportional to each other. Most conductors obey this empirical law that is named after him....

Georg Simon Ohm (March 16, 1789 - july 6 1854) was a German physicist. As a high school teacher, Ohm started his research with the recently invented electrochemical cell, invented by Italian Count Alessandro Volta. Using equipment of his own creation,...
