Assuming DC and resistive loads, resistance equals voltage across the load, divided by the current through it. In this case 120/10 or 12 ohms.

What would happen to circuit if there was no resistance?
a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()
Is the increase in voltage causes a greater electric resistance in a circuit?
No, the resistance in a circuit does not change when voltage changes. Resistance is an inherent property of the circuit.
How do you calculate the joint resistance in a series circuit with three resistances?
The resistance of a series circuit is simply the sum of the individual resistors.
When a dead short occur what happens to circuit resistance?
The circuit resistance is likely to gradually drop and in such case it will cause the circuit to burn down.
What is critical resistance in circuit theory?
With respect to an RLC circuit, the critical resistance is the resistance which would critically dampen the circuit. This means a resistance lower than the critical resistance would create an under-damped situation, and higher than the critical resistance would create an over-damped situation. An underdamped circuit will ocillate, an overdamped circuit will decay exponentially over a long period of time. The critically damped circuit will immediately decay to zero (time dependent on the values of the circuit elements)
what is the resistance of circuit with 120v and 10A?

How many ohms is a 120 volts?
"Volts" is electrical pressure applied to a circuit; whereas, "ohms" is electrical resistance to that pressure. One cannot determine ohms from voltage without knowing either the current (in "amps") or power (in "watts"). A normal 120V household circuit can handle a maximum of 20 amps, so using ohm's law of resistance = voltage / current, the minimum resistance required in a 120V household circuit would be 6 ohms. Any less than 6 ohms will cause the circuit breaker to trip.
An electric heating element has a resistance of 16ohm and is connected to a voltage of 120v How much current will flow in the circuit?
Ohms law states that E=I * R, or voltage equals current times resistance. Therefore current equals voltage divided by resistance. 120v divided by 16 ohms equals 7.5 amps.
How much resistance should be on a 5.0 kw heat strip?
Depends on the voltage. Wattage is Volts x Amps. Resistance (ohms) is Volts divided by Amps. So on a 120V circuit, it would draw 41.66 amps. To do that, it would need a resistance of 2.88 ohms. But on a 240V circuit, it would draw 20.83 amps. That would require a resistance of 11.52 ohms. Determine the circuit voltage, then use that to figure the amps, then use that result to calculate the resistance necessary.

a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()
