What else can I help you with?
Does voltage flow across or through a resistor?
No. If a voltage is applied across a resistor, a current flows through it.
Does current flow through a resistor, or does it flow across a resistor?
Current flows through a resistor, not across it.
What is the current through the 150 ohm resistor?
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
Is current is drop when it flowing through the resistor?
Current flows in loops, voltage drops across elements. With relation to current, what flows in, must flow out, so no, current is not dropped across a resistor, it flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across the resistor.
What is the current drop across the resistor?
The correct question is what is the voltage drop across a resistor or the current flowing through the resistor using Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance
Can you provide some Ohm's Law practice questions for me to work on?
Here are some practice questions based on Ohm's Law: If a resistor has a resistance of 10 ohms and a current of 2 amperes flowing through it, what is the voltage across the resistor? A circuit has a voltage of 12 volts applied across a resistor with a resistance of 4 ohms. What is the current flowing through the resistor? If a circuit has a current of 0.5 amperes flowing through a resistor with a resistance of 8 ohms, what is the voltage across the resistor? These questions will help you practice applying Ohm's Law to calculate voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits.
How does current change across a resistor?
Current changes across a resistor in direct proportion to the voltage applied. This relationship is described by Ohm's Law, which states that current (I) is equal to voltage (V) divided by resistance (R), or I V/R.
Does current flow through a resistor or across a resistor?
Normally through the resistor's internal construction. It flows through any part of the resistor that has low resistance- be it anywere. And then there's this. It might be that one should consider that current flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across a resistor. Perhaps this is where the question began. The former is fairly straight forward. The latter can be vexing. Voltage is said to be dropped across a resistor when current is flowing through it. The voltage drop may be also considered as the voltage measureable across that resistor or the voltage "felt" by that resistor. It's as if that resistor was in a circuit by itself and hooked up to a battery of that equivalent voltage.
What does resistor perform?
A resistor's resistance is measured in ohms. The higher the resistance the less current will flow with a constant voltage applied across the resistor. In terms of Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance.
Is voltage established through a resistor or across a resistor?
Current = charge (electrons) flowing through a resistor.Voltage = energy lost across a resistor.Power = energy lost across a resistor per second.So yes you are correct. Current is established through a component, while voltage and power are established across a component.Answer'Voltage' is a synonym for 'potential difference'. As the name implies, voltage describes the difference in potential between (or 'across') two different points. So voltage is applied ACROSS a resistor.Further to the original answer. voltage is NOT equivalent to 'the energy lost across a resistor', and power is NOT 'established across a resistor' (power is simply a 'rate', nothing more)!
What is the resistance of a resistor if the potential differennce across the resistor is 9 V when current of 1 A flows through the resistor?
9 ohms
How does a resistor affect the flow of electricity in a circuit: does a resistor reduce voltage or current?
A resistor affects the flow of electricity in a circuit by reducing the current that flows through it. This reduction in current leads to a decrease in voltage across the resistor.
