Ohm between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt, applied to these points, produces in the conductor a current of one ampere, the conductor not being the seat of any electromotive force. in which the following units appear: volt (V), ampere (A), siemens (S), watt (W), second (s), farad (F), joule (J), kilogram (kg), metre (m), and coulomb (C). In many cases the resistance of a conductor in ohms is approximately constant within a certain range of voltages, temperatures, and other parameters. These are called linear resistors. In other cases resistance varies (e.g., thermistors). A
Ground loop (electricity) the cable If a current "I" from a separate source is flowing through the ground conductor, the resistance "R" of the conductor will create a voltage drop along the cable ground of "IR", so the destination end of the ground conductor will be at a different potential than the source end Since the differential amplifier has high impedance, little current flows in the signal wire, therefore there is no voltage drop across it: formula_15 The ground voltage appears to be in series with the signal voltage "V" and adds to it If "I" is an AC current this can result
