Using Ohms Law, the answer is 120/0.5 = 240 Ohms.
resister is nothing but a 'clay' which will reduce the flow of current. There by limiting the volt.
To impede the flow of current
For the individual resistor, the current is constant, regardless of any other resister that's attached to it in parallel. The current that results from all the resistors combined decreases as the resistance of one or more of the resistors increases.
series network consists of components i.e resisters connected end to end. since their is only one path for the flow of current. but potential drop across each resister is different. so thats the reason that series network has maximum resistence then the highest resister in combination. the same amount of current passes through each resister.
you divide the volts by the ohms
General purpose resistor is used to resist the current flow.the common resister is general purpose resister.
A resistor is an electronic device that reduces the current flow in a circuit.

To impede the flow of current
a resister is to RESIST current flow....if the LED gets the full effect of the power supply, the LED will immediately blow out.
The capital Greek letter Ω (omega) is the symbol for Ohms - the unit of resistance. A 1.5Ω resister is a resistor with quite a low resistance. If a voltage of 1.5 Volts is applied across it, a current of 1 Amp[ere]s will flow through it.
the earth resister of ht power system is infinite.so for high resister, there are no current flow throught it.due to high resister most unwanted voltage pass througth it.
Yes it does power has to go thru it first and if current is to high it will blow the resister as like a fuse

current
No. A resister is not a replacement component for a diode. A resister is passive and allows current to flow through in in both directions. A diode is a single semiconductor junction that only allow current to flow in one direction.
The resistor a passive component is oppose the flow of electric current. How much it oppose to current it depend on the value of resistance and the value of resistance is mention on it on the color code format. you need to remember the value of every color.
