E is a shorter form of EMF, which stands for "ElectroMotive Force", which is a fancy term for Voltage. Technically, voltage is a unit of potential energy. When a conductor is connected between two sources of dissimilar charge, a force is asserted on the electrons in the atoms and molecules in the conductor. This is modeled as a decrease in potential energy and an increase in "kinetic" energy in the form of electron motion, but this is really a simplified model of the actual much more complicated physics behind what is really happening.

True or false current is the voltage multiplied by the resistance?

False. Voltage (E) is the potential difference, i.e. electrical potential, in joules per coulomb. Current (I), on the other hand, is electrical charge flow, in coulombs per second. The two units are not related except through a common term such as resistance (R). E = IR I = E/R R = E/I


What class of helmet has no resistance to electrical voltage?

The class of helmet that has no resistance to electrical voltage is known as class G (General). These helmets are designed primarily for impact protection and do not provide electrical insulation. They are not suitable for use in environments where there is a risk of electrical shock from live wires or equipment. For electrical work, helmets classified as class E (Electrical) should be used, as they offer specific protection against electrical hazards.


In electrical what is the oms low?

Voltage(E)=Amps(I) x Resistance(R) (ohms) use this formula to solve for other two.


Explain the relationship between voltage current and resistance?

The ratio of voltage to current is called resistance. In hydraulic terms, you can equate voltage to the difference in pressure between two points, current with the resulting flow of fluid between those points , and resistance as the opposition to that flow.


When the resistance in an electrical circuit increases and the voltage does not change the current flowing in the circuit?

Here is the formula you use. I = E/R. I = amperage, E = volts, R = resistance in ohms.

What does E stand for in electronic circuits like R for resistance?

Electromotive force or electromotance measured in volts.Just think of it as volts. Like in Ohm's Law:R=E/I or I=E/R or E=I*RE stands for volts, I stands for current (from the French word intensite'),and R stands for resistance.

What is represented by the E I and R in the formula E IR?

In the formula E=IR, E represents voltage (in volts), I represents current (in amperes), and R represents resistance (in ohms). This formula is known as Ohm's Law in electrical engineering.
