The standard unit in the measure of electrical resistance,being the resistance of a circuit in which a potential difference ofone volt produces a current of one ampére. As defined by theInternational Electrical Congress in 1893, and by United StatesStatute, it is a resistance substantially equal to 109 units ofresistance of the C.G.S. system of electro-magnetic units, and isrepresented by the resistance offered to an unvarying electriccurrent by a column of mercury at the temperature of melting ice14.4521 grams in mass, of a constant cross-sectional area, and of thelength of 106.3 centimeters. As thus defined it is called theinternational ohm. Ohm's law (Elec.), the statement of the fact thatthe strength or intensity of an electrical current is directlyproportional to the electro-motive force, and inversely proportionalto the resistance of the circuit.
