Resistance is the opposition of the atoms in any materiel to the movement of the electrons of a certain current ... so the resistance is a long wire, and thus more atoms to pass through that's how it reduces the electron flow

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.
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 if a circuit has no resistance?
Then the voltage in will equal the voltage out. The purpose of a resistor is to reduce the amount of electrical flow of current. You 'short out' the supply and blow a fuse/circuit breaker.
What happens to current flow when the resistance is higher than normal?
For a specific voltage, current flow is inversely proportional to resistance.
Can Water can decrease a substance resistance to the flow of electricity?
Reduce the temperature of the conductor.
What in electricity is like friction and tends to reduce the amount of current flow like buildup in a pipe reduces water flow?
Resistance inhibits current flow.
What type of force acts on a raindrop to reduce its speed?
Air resistance. The viscosity (resistance to flow) of the atmosphere slow down falling raindrops.
How can you reduce water resistance on boats?
Water resistance on boats can be reduced by ensuring the boat is as streamlined as possible. This will allow the water to flow past it much more easily, thus reducing resistance.
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.
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.
How do you reduce air resistance?
Give more flow. (air passage ways) If your in a car and theres a hurricane near you, you don't want your windows closed. There would be air resistance and move your car.
A fluid resistance to flow?
A fluid's resistance to flow is called viscosity.
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?

Viscosity is a fluids resistance to?
Flow
