BACKGROUND
Georg Simon Ohm was a German physicist born in Erlangen,
Bavaria, on March 16, 1787. His main interest tended toward current
electricity, which had recently been advanced by Alessandro Volta’s
invention of the battery. Ohm made only a modest living, and as a
result his experimental equipment remained primitive. Despite this,
he made his own metal wire, producing a range of thickness and
lengths of remarkable consistent quality. During the nine years he
spent at Nuremburg's Jesuit's college, he did considerable
experimental research on the nature of electric circuits. He took
considerable pains to be brutally accurate with every detail of his
work.
In 1827, Ohm was able to show from his experiments that there
was a simple relationship between resistance, current and voltage.
This theory, eventually reshaped as Ohm’s Law, stated that
the amount of steady current through a material is directly
proportional to the voltage across the material, for some fixed
temperature, or I = V/R. Ohm had discovered the distribution
of electromotive force in an electrical circuit, and had
established a definite relationship connecting resistance,
electromotive force and current strength.
THE CACHE:
Retain the degrees and minutes from the listed coordinates, and
use the following images to determine the decimal minutes portions
of the latitude and longitude. You'll be looking for a large pill
fob. Since it is such a small container in the woods I've included
two hints. The park in which the cache is hidden remains open from
6am-midnight, so plan your hunt accordingly. Enjoy!
