George, Where or how did you come up with "Ohm's Law only applies to those conductors that Ohm's law applies to.Try a filament lamp, zinc oxide resistor,a semiconductor junction etc. Ohm's Law applies to none of these.Nor does it apply toa contact between 2 oxide corroded metal surfaces". Am I missing something? Ohm's Law most assuredly still applies to everything you mention. Any PN junction is nothing but a variable resistor.It doesn't operate in a linear fashion but it is still subject to Ohm's Law. You'd better guess again about your statement reguarding it doesn't apply to contacts between 2 corroded metal surfaces either.
