I want to be many things when I get older and learning about OHM’S law helps me get where I want, and Technology class I never finished so I really appreciate how I can learn it with out do the class but of course I do school every it’s just that I got stuck on a problem and couldn’t skip it. But thank you Dr Roger Billings for teaching me more about OHM’S law.😀
