The resistance of a current is a measure of how difficult it is to push the electrons along.

Answer

There is no such thing as the 'resistance of a current'. Resistance is a characteristic of the material through which a current flows, not of the current itself.

If pressure is constant and current increases the resistance?

I assume you meant pressure to voltage. The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to the temperature of the conductor. If the temperature of the conductor increases due to increased current, then the resistance tend to increase too.


What is meant by electric resistance of a conductor?

Electric resistance is a measure of how much a material impedes the flow of electrical current. It is denoted by the symbol R and is measured in Ohms. Conductors with higher resistance require more energy to push current through them.


What is the relationship among voltage current and resistance in a circuit?

Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)


What is a relationship among voltage current and resistance in a circuit?

Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)


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.

How can you determine the resistance of a current?

Voltage = Current x Resistance giving us Current = Voltage / Resistance i.e. Voltage divided by resistance


Does lowering resistance increase current?

Current is proportionally inverse to resistance and when the voltage is fixed, lowering resistance will increase the current


What is meant by the resistance of an electrical component?

Think of it like this: Friction causes you difficulty in pulling heavy objects on a carpet. This frictional force is similar to electrical resistance. It is one of two ways to define how easily electricity will travel through an electrical element.


How does loading effect affect flow of current?

Ohm's Law says that Voltage = Current x Resistance (Load). Therefore Current = Voltage / Resistance and as resistance decreases current increases and as resistance increases current decreases.


How does increasing the resistance affect the current?

Increasing resistance decreases current.
