i dont know really, thats why im asking right

∙ 14y agoI am not aware of such a term. I think a better description of electrical resistance would be current resistance since the current flow is impeded by resistance, not the voltage. Voltage by definition is not a flow and cannot be impeded in the sense that current can.

What are applications of OHM METER?
It measures resistance in a component or circuit to determine if there is a break in that circuit or component. If there's no resistance, it means there's a break, as no electrical current is passing through.
Does resistance flow through a circuit?
No. Resistance does not flow. Resistance is the characteristic of a material that resists the movement of electrons and thus the flow of electrical current.
Why a wheatstone circuit is called a bridge?
An electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance is called a Wheatstone bridge. It is called a bridge because it balances two legs of a bridge circuit.
Does an open circuit have a break that interrupts the flow of electrical charges?
Of course it has a break . open circuit means infinite resistance , so no electrical charge can flow through it .
What instrument measures electrical earth resistance?
A multimeter device can measure resistance, current, AC/DC voltage, and it also can determine continuity on an electrical circuit, and its range for current, voltage and resistance is widely variable.
The number of ohms in a circuit is a measure of the?
The electrical resistance of the circuit
When they can use a resistor in a circuit?
When the circuit needs the electrical property of resistance, of course.
What does R mean in an electrical circuit?
it's generally the resistance. its generally the energy dissipiating component called Resistor
What components are placed in an electrical circuit to control the amount of resistance in circuit?
resistors, variable potentiometers
What does electricity receiver mean?
electricity receiver mean that a conductor which has property of flow of electron without resistance. it is idal condition.- vinod
What is resistance do in a circuit?
lowers the amt of electrical current flowing through it.
What is it called if electrons encounter difficulty as they move through a circuit?
Resistance, or electrical resistance. The SI unit is the ohm.
As the total resistance is reduced in a simple electrical circuit the current flow will?
increase
What does R stand for in electricity?
Resistance in an electrical circuit or device measured in ohms.
Is the sum of the resistance in a parallel circuit always excessds the total resistance in a circuit?
Not sure what you mean. The equivalent (total) resistance in a parallel circuit is less than any individual resistance.
Describe the relationship of the parts of an electrical current?
I assume you mean Voltage, Current and Resistance. Voltage (E)or electromagnetic force is the electrical pressure or force that forces the electrons through any given circuit Current (I)is the flow of those electrons through any given circuit Resistance (R) is anything within the circuit that would restrict the flow of electrons
