The “Ohm” SongHow to remember Ohm’s Law and what it all really

means

“Ohm” Song – Verse OneOh give me a name that will

mean just the sameAs “The voltage we need for

each Amp”So then I could say in a short

useful wayThe resistance of my reading

lamp

“Ohm” Song – Chorus“Ohm”, “Ohm” sounds

quite strangeIt’s the name of someone

now deadBut “Volts for each Amp”,

for resistor or lampIs hard, so we say “Ohm”

instead

“Ohm” Song – Verse TwoTime costs we are told, so to save

time and goldWe write symbols, not words on

each lineWe have used “A” to “Z” so we

went Greek insteadAnd it seems that W (omega) is

fine.

“Ohm” Song – Chorus“Ohm”, “Ohm” sounds

quite strangeIt’s the name of someone

now deadBut “Volts for each Amp”,

for resistor or lampIs hard, so we say “Ohm”

instead

“Ohm” Song Chorus – Last Time“Ohm”, “Ohm” sounds

quite strangeIt’s the name of someone

now deadBut “Volts for each Amp”,

for resistor or lampIs hard, so we say “Ohm”

instead
