There are various forms of resistors used for electronic circuits. You can divide it in mainly two basic types:
- Fixed Resistors: The resistors that come with two wires are listed in this resistor type. These kinds of resistors do not allow you to change the resistance.
- Variable Resistors: These types of resistors allow you to change the resistance using the resistance using the knob.
Some other types or resistors are as following:
- Carbon Film Resistor
- Metal Oxide Film Resistor
- Precision Metal Film Resistor
- Wire Wound Resistor (WWR)
- Power Film Resistor
- Precision Wire Wound Resistor
- High Power Wire Wound Resistor
- Photocell
- Light Dependant Resistor (LDR)
- Voltage Dependant Resistor (VDR)
What else can I help you with?
What kind of component is a resistor?
combined
What are uses of carbon film resistor?
Same as any other kind of resistor, they're used to control voltages and currents in electric circuits.
What is an object in an electric circuit that resists the flow of electrons?
A special kind of resistor can oppose the flow of an electrical current.
Is Light dependent resistor an example of resistor?
yes, a variable resistor
How do you tell if a blower motor resistor is bad?
If a blower motor resister is bad the fan won't work at all or will only work on certain speeds. And you will see on the resistor a missing link where it burnt out kind of like in a light bulb
Who invented the resistor?
Otis F. Boykin invented the wire precision resistor and the electrical resistor.
What is the difference between an ohmic resistor and a non-ohmic resistor?
A non-ohmic resistor doesn't have a constant resistance. A ohmic resistor has a constant resistance.
What is the function of a cement resistor?
A cement resistor is typically used as a power resistor (a resistor whose power rating is greater than 1 W).
What are resistor values defined by?
Resistor value is defined by the Resistance the resistor offers in Kilo ohms/ohms value given by color codes on the resistor.
What kind of relationship can be concluded about the voltage difference across a resistor and the current flowing through it?
POWER=VI. V=voltage I= current
What is the current running through a resistor of 9 ohms with volts of 90?
I = E / RIf the voltage across the resistor is 90 volts, and the resistance of the resistoris 9 ohms, then the current through the resistor is90/9 = 10 Amperes.Don't try this at home!The power dissipated by the resistor is E2/R = (90)2/9 = 900 watts. That's comparable to the power (heat) dissipated by a small toaster. A common composition resistor will get hot and possibly explode if it's asked to dissipate that kind of power.
Where is the resistor for the coil on a mercruiser 470?
The Cable is the Resistor ! Its a Resistor-Cable ! Greets from the Lake of Constance/Germany !
