Definition Of Resistance In Electrical:Property of a material to oppose the flow of electric current through it is called Resistance.
What else can I help you with?
Does resistance to electrical current flow have the same meaning as resistance to fluid flow?
no, a better analog is reactance
What measures electrical resistance?
an ohm meter OR multimeter is used to measure the electrical resistance...
Who when and how was electrical resistance discovered?
electrical resistance was discovered by Georg Ohm in the late 1820's.
What are the units of resistance in an electrical circuit measured in?
The units of resistance in an electrical circuit are measured in ohms ().
What is resistance expressed in?
Electrical resistance is measured in Ohms.
What component in an electrical circuit provides resistance?
The component in an electrical circuit that provides resistance is called a resistor.
What is the opposition to the flow of electrons is called?
Resistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistance
What is the formula for calculating the resistance in an electrical circuit?
The formula for calculating resistance in an electrical circuit is R V/I, where R is the resistance, V is the voltage, and I is the current.
What is excessive electrical resistance?
High resistance means insulation
If you are using a multimeter as an ohmmeter and you get a reading of maximum resistance what does that tell you about the circuit you are measuring?
Did you mean "maximum RESISTANCE" or "maximum VALUE"? If the former, then, you have a ZERO reading, meaning there is high resistance, and no electrical connectivity. If the latter, you have a ONE (or 100%) reading, meaning there is NO resistance, or absolute electrical connectivity. As an analogy, if you turn on a plugged-in, working, lamp, then it has NO resistance, such that power flows easily through the cord; if it didn't turn on, then there IS resistance, such that no power flows, possibly due to broken wire, bad switch, burned-out bulb, or blown fuse.
What is the electrical resistance of dirt?
I believe from Carson's equations that the electrical resistance of dirt isrd = 0.09530 Ohms / mile
What is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance?
Rheostat is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance.
