I resistor is called so because it provides electrical resistance (measured in ohms). Electrical resistance describes how an electrical conductor (a wire) opposes the flow of an electrical current (flow of electrons). To overcome this opposition a voltage (a energy) must dropped (used) across the conductor (wire).
What else can I help you with?
Why transistor is called so?
transistor. This word is a blended form of transfer of resistor. The legs of transistor (collector, emitter,base) transfer the resistance. So it is called as transistor
Why we use emitter resistance in circuits?
The emitter resistor is connected to ground(in the case of an rc coupled amplifier).Also input signal applied at the base is grounded.Then the emitter resistor forms a feedback to the input signal (through the ground return path).So emitter resistor is also called feedback resistor.
Why transistor so named?
Transistor stands for "Transfer Resistor". (Resistor of transference)
What is a resistor whose value can varied over a range of value called?
Variable resistor. The value of the variable resistor can be changed at any given moment.
What is the resistor inside a light bulb called?
the wire in your light bulb is a resistor :)
What Material is resistor made out off?
A powder called 'Ferrite' that is tightly compressed into the resistor. It's level of electrical conductivity changes as the compression rate changes - so the principle is simple. Happy to help. 'Matt
What is a protective resistor?
The protecting resistor is put in series with the LED so that you have a voltage divider - the supply voltage is split across the LED ( max 0.6v) and the remainder across the protecting resistor. So if your supply is 6volts, 5.4v will be across the resistor,
Does 2001 dodge durango have a blower motor or is it called a blower motor resistor?
Your truck has both. the resistor is between the switch & blower.thje resistor controls the blower speed
Why resistor and capacitor are called liner elements?
i dont no
What is the resistor in an incandescent light bulb called?
It is the filament.
What is 1k resistor?
the k is the Metric value kilo, or ,1000 so this is a 1000 ohm resistor
How is a resistor different from a fuse?
A resistor is a material that attenuates the current through a conductor. An insulator isolates the conductor from the surrounding material.
