What is a material that slows down or resists the flow of current and is used in electrical systems?
Resistor
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 cause the voltage t lead current in an ac circuit?
Voltage leads current or, more specifically current lags voltage, in an inductive circuit. This is because an inductor resists a change in current.
When current remains constant and resistance increases the voltage in the circuit will?
The physical equation governing voltage is V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance. If V remains constant while R is increased, I or current must decrease. Increasing the resistance in a circuit is simply introducing a material that further resists or impedes the electron flow (current), thus current decreases.
How can you stop electric current?
An insulative material is one that will stop the conduction of heat. This would be considered a thermal brake and could be a piece of plastic or wood.
What is a material that slows down or resists the flow of current and is used in electrical systems?
Resistor
What are resistors and what are they important?
Resistors are a material that resists the flow of electrons. The resistors are materials that resist electric current energy to be changed into other forms.
