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.
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
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 is the use of resistor in the circuit?
A resistor develops a voltage differential when current is passed through it. Ohm's law: Voltage is current times resistance.
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.
Are resistor drops the voltage or current?
Resistors drop voltage by creating a voltage difference across themselves. This voltage drop is determined by the resistance value of the resistor and the current flowing through it, according to Ohm's Law (V=IR). The current passing through a resistor remains constant if the resistor is in series with other components in a circuit.
What is the voltage drop across a resistor of 300 kilo ohm?
What is the amount of current flowing through the resistor? Voltage drop is dependent on the current. Ohm x Amps = Voltage drop
How does a resistor limit current or voltage in an electrical circuit?
A resistor limits current in an electrical circuit by impeding the flow of electrons, which reduces the amount of current passing through it. This, in turn, helps regulate the voltage in the circuit by creating a drop in voltage across the resistor.
What voltage is developed across a 6 Ω resistor if 3 A of current flows through it?
The answer is 6 ohms x 3 amps which is 18 v.
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).
Does a resister use current?
It may be better to say that a resistor allows current flow through itself rather than to say that a resistor is a device that will "use" current. It does "resist" current flow, and thus limits it to some degree depending on its resistance. (More resistance means more limiting of current flow.) The resistor "drops voltage" as well limits current. A resistor "feels voltage" from some source, and the voltage it "feels" is said to be the "voltage drop" of the resistor. The voltage drop is the voltage that could be measured across that resistor with a meter.
