What else can I help you with?
A red resistor draws more current than a blue resistor when they are connected to the same battery which resistor has the lower resistance?
The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.
What component that makes it more difficult for current to flow?
IF there is a Resistor
If voltage constant when the current increases what does the resistance do?
In an electric circuit, ratio of current and voltage is constant which is known as the resistance of the circuit. If voltage or current is to be changed the resistance has to be changed. You cannot keep an invariable resistance in the circuit and increase current while keeping voltage as constant.Hence to vary the voltage or current in a circuit different equipments like rheostat,potentiometer are used.
Resistors A and B are connected in parallel If resistor B has twice the resistance of A what is the current taken by resistor B?
half of the current flowing thru resistor 1.... V=IR.
When a resistor is connected in parallel what happens to the size of current form the battery?
When a resistor is added the current goes down, that is expressed in the equation current= voltage/ resistance
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.

How does current change through a resistor?
When an electric current flows through a resistor, the resistor resists the flow of the current, causing a decrease in the current. This decrease in current is proportional to the resistance of the resistor, as described by Ohm's Law.
What is a ballast resistor?
A ballast resistor is an electrical resistor whose resistance varies with the current passing through it, thus maintaining a constant current.
How can I find the energy dissipated in the resistor?
To find the energy dissipated in a resistor, you can use the formula: Energy (current)2 x resistance x time. This formula calculates the energy dissipated in the resistor based on the current flowing through it, the resistance of the resistor, and the time the current flows.
A 120 resistor a 60 ohm resistor and a 40 ohm resistor are connected in parallel to a 120 volt power source what is the current running though the 40 ohm resistor?
To calculate the total current in the circuit, you first need to find the total resistance by using the formula for resistors in parallel: 1/Total Resistance = 1/120 + 1/60 + 1/40. Once you have the total resistance, you can use Ohm's Law: Current = Voltage / Total Resistance. Finally, to find the current running through the 40 ohm resistor, you divide the total current by the resistance of the 40 ohm resistor.
What are the losses in resistors?
The power lost in a resistor is(the current through the resistor) times (the resistance) watts. That's the same thing as(the voltage across the resistor)/(the resistance)watts.
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
What does a variable resistor do and how does it affect the flow of electric current in a circuit?
A variable resistor is a component that can change its resistance value. By adjusting the resistance, it can control the flow of electric current in a circuit. Increasing the resistance reduces the current flow, while decreasing the resistance increases the current flow. This allows for precise control of the current in a circuit.

Is resistor measured in amps?
No, resistors are measured in ohms, not amps. Ohms represent the resistance offered by the resistor to the flow of current, whereas amps (amperes) represent the measure of current flowing through a circuit.
