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.
What would result from increasing the resistance in a series circuit with one resistance (load)?
Resistance refers to the property of a substance that impedes the flow of electric current. Some substances resist current flow more than others. If a substance offers very high resistance to current flow it is called an insulator. If its resistance to current flow is very low, it is called a conductor. Resistivity refers to the ability of substances to resist current flow. Good conductors have low resistivity and insulators have high resistivity.Factors upon which resistance dependsThe resistance R of a conductori. is directly proportional to its lengthii. is inversely proportional to its area of X-sectioniii. nature of the materialiv. changes with temperature.From the first three points, R = p l/ A where p = rho and is a constant of proportionalityOr, if the resistance is increased,current flow will decrease(I = V/R).Looking at the first three factors ,area of X-section will be decreasing.
Does resistance depend upon current?
The higher the resistance the lower the current flow. It restricts the flow of electrical current. The resistance will not depend upon the current. The current flow will depend on the resistance.
A fluid resistance to flow is called?
A fluid's resistance to flow is called its viscosity.
What happens to current flow when the resistance is higher than normal?
For a specific voltage, current flow is inversely proportional to resistance.
How is viscosity related to flow rate?
Viscosity is a substances resistance to flow. So as the viscosity of a substance increases, the flow rate will decrease.
What is blood flow resistance?
The resistance of blood flow is what?
Is it true that condensation is the resistance of a fluid to flow?
No, resistance to flow is viscosity.

Can water decrease a substances's resistance to the flow of electricity?
A item's resistance is not able to be changed with water. Water on an object or absorbed by an object can change the overall resistance of an object by putting in parallel the resistance of the water itself. If you were to use very clean water that was deionized and soaked your device, you would see no resistance change.
A fluid resistance to flow is called?
A fluid's resistance to flow is called its viscosity.
Viscosity is a fluids resistance to?
Flow
Does resistance to electrical current flow have the same meaning as resistance to fluid flow?
no, a better analog is reactance
How will you differ a resistor and resistance?
resistance is the hindrance caused to some flow be it flow of liquids,flow of positive charges etc. whereas resistor is the device used to vary the resistance of the electric circuit
