Light dimmer knobs, or volume control knobs - would be two examples that come to mind where a person would be changing resistance to create a desired change (lights brighter or dimmer; radio louder or softer).

Does sugar create electrical resistance?
Sugar is not used in electrical circuits.
What is the opposition to the flow of electrons is called?
Resistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistance
In electrical work resistance is often represented by the?
The symbol representing resistance in electrical information is the last letter of the Greek alphabet omega.
What is the opposition to flow of electric charge?
Electrical resistance, measured in Ohms
Examples of electrical resistance?
Good examples of electrical resistance would be an electrical baseboard heater, electric hot water tank and an electrical kettle. All of these devices use a resistive element to create heat.
What measures electrical resistance?
an ohm meter OR multimeter is used to measure the electrical resistance...
What is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance?
Rheostat is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance.
Does sugar create electrical resistance?
Sugar is not used in electrical circuits.
What is insulating material used for?
insulating materials have low thermal/electrical conductivity values and hence can be used in applications where resistance to heat or resistance to the passage of electrical current is required.
What is resistance welding?
Arc. It's where electrical resistance is used to create the heat for the welding process.
What is the ohm unit used to measure?
Ohms measure electrical resistance. The resistance in ohms is the voltage divided by the current.
What symbol is often used for electrical resistance?
I have never come across a symbol for an electrical resistance box. As the resistance box is a test instrument and it would not be drawn on any electrical schematic there may not be a symbol designated for it. The last letter of the Greek alphabet is (Ω omega) and it is used for the electrical symbol for resistance.
What is the definition of equivalent resistance?
Equivalent series resistance (ESR) is an effective resistance that is used to describe the resistive parts of the impedance of certain electrical components.
What type of transformer is used in a resistance furnace?
A resistance furnace runs on electricity so it will be some type of electrical transformer.
What are multimetres used for?
Measuring a variety of electrical parameters: resistance, voltage, current.
Where electrical resistance being used in daily life?
National Grid, Gadgets
What is the opposition to the flow of electrons is called?
Resistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistance
