BASIC LAWS

These Law's form the foundation upon which Electric Circuit analysis is built.
OHM'S LAW
- This law states that the voltage (v) across a resistor is directly proportional to the current (i) flowing through the resistor. That is,  v α i.
- R is called resistor and has the ability. 

A short circuit is a circuit element with resistance approaching zero. V=0, R=0 






An open circuit is a circuit element with resistance approaching infinity. V, R= ∞


A resistor that obeys Ohm’s law is known as a linear resistor. 
Conductance (G) - Siemens (S)
- Reciprocal of resistance R, G= 1/R
- Has the ability to conduct current.
