This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams.
In this episode you will learn:
- The fundamental relationship between voltage, current, and resistance as defined by Ohm's Law (V=IR).
- How the Navy OAR's Mechanical Comprehension section tests electrical principles through direct calculation problems.
- A common exam trap involving unit mismatches, such as kilovolts or milliamps, that require conversion before solving.
- The distinction between electrical power (the rate of energy use, in Watts) and energy (power over time, in Joules).
- A memorable mnemonic, the VIR triangle, to quickly recall and rearrange the Ohm's Law formula during the exam.
