It could act as one when the circuit is closed, but when the circuit is open, I believe you would define the air as the thing resisting current. In basic circuit problems the switch usually doesn't have any resistance of its own (ie as negligible as the resistance in a wire, so it is ignored).
What else can I help you with?
The dimmer switch in a lighting circuit controls the brightness of one or more lamps by varying the resistance in the circuit what schematic symbol could be used to represent this device?
Use the standard resistor symbol and then place an arrow across the resistor. The bottom of the arrow midpoint of the resistor and just below, the tip of the arrow (draw with an arrow head) just above the resistor. This represents the wiper of the variable resistor.
A battery has emf of 6 v and an internal resistance of 4 ohm it is connected to a 2.6 ohm resistor a switch when switch is open the potential difference between the terminals of a battery is?
6 volts
Assume that the function range switch is on the 20k position and the multimeter displays 1 when the test leads are across an unknown resistor What would most likely cause the meter to display 1?
the function range switch is not set on a high enough scale
What is the function of a cement resistor?
A cement resistor is typically used as a power resistor (a resistor whose power rating is greater than 1 W).
Voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistor?
A voltmeter can be connected in parallel with a resistor to show the voltage across the resistor.
Where is a variable resistor in your home?
If you have a light switch where you can brightener it or dim it that is a VARIABLE RESISTOR.
Is a switch and example of a resistor?
No it is not. A resistor has a known resistance that is less than infinity. A switch has a resistance of either infinity when it is open or low when it is closed
How do you replace the blower fan resistor on a 2003 buick rendezvous?
where is the switch resistor on 2003 buick
Resistor and capacitor built circuit for alarm switch?
I wanna use resistor , capacitor and amplifier 7173 for switch alarm circuit. How can i choice resistor and capacitor value because i wanna use 24V DC.
Is a resistor and a relay the same thing?
No, they are not the same. A resistor is a current reducer and a relay is essentially a switch (using low voltage to switch high voltage on/off)
How do you UNCHARGE a capacitor?
Connect it, in series, to a resistor or a dummy load and a switch. And then throw the switch.
2004 trailblazer fan switch not working is it the switch or blower motor resistor the switch did not go out all at once it worked on 1-3 for a while then went totally out?
If the resistor was bad you would still have high speed. If you have no speeds I would suspect the switch and/or pigtail plug at the switch.
What happens when a switch in a current is opened?
current through the switch become 0.and switch become a high value resistor.
What happens when a switch a current is opened?
current through the switch become 0.and switch become a high value 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
Where is the blower motor resistor in a 98 rodeo?
It's in the resistor block, which in the diagrams comes right after the fan control switch
How do you tell if Chevy fan blower resistor is bad or the selector switch?
Examine the back of the switch for loose or melted connections. Then examine the resistor for burned spots. In most cases a burned resistor is the result of a failing blower motor. So if a new resistor burns out in a short time, replace the motor also.
