Insulators typically slow the movement of electrons through an electric current. Bad conductors, such as rubber, can be used to slow, stop, and/or redirect electric current.
CommentInsulators do not 'slow down', 'stop', or 'redirect' current! Simply put, insulators don't have enough charge carriers to support conduction.
A force that tends to oppose motion
Materials that allow charges to flow through them easily are called conductors. Conductors typically have a high density of free electrons that can move easily in response to an electric field. Common examples of conductors include metals like copper, silver, and aluminum.
Mainly friction.
There are many types of forces that oppose motion such as friction, drag and most universal, gravity.

The term that describes the ability of a material to oppose the flow of electric current is resistance. It is measured in ohms and is influenced by the material's properties like conductivity and temperature.
A special kind of resistor can oppose the flow of an electrical current.
The resistor a passive component is oppose the flow of electric current. How much it oppose to current it depend on the value of resistance and the value of resistance is mention on it on the color code format. you need to remember the value of every color.
Definition Of Resistance In Electrical:Property of a material to oppose the flow of electric current through it is called Resistance.
Increase resistance lowers current
Opposition to the flow of electric current in a resistance is caused by the collisions of the electrons with the atoms in the material. This interaction converts some of the electrical energy into heat, leading to a loss of energy through the resistance.
oppose changes in current flow.
I oppose alternating current. Direct is the only way for me. That is 1 in opposition.
The ability to oppose a change in shape is known as elasticity. Objects that exhibit elasticity can return to their original shape after being deformed. This property is commonly observed in materials like rubber bands, springs, and certain metals.
1.Hardness-the ability to oppose change in shape;also defined as=-the ability to snatch another substance==2. Brittleness-the ability crumble when subjected to a blow==3.Luster-the ability of a substance to shine==4.Malleability-is the ability of a material to hammered into thin sheets==5.Ductlicity-is the ability of a material to be drawn into fine wires==6.Elasticity-the ability of an object to be streched out can be formed again to its original form==7.Perosity-the ability to absorb liquid==8.Flexibility-the ability to bent without breaking==9.Solubility-the ability of matter to be dissolved in another material=
Because that is what a capacitor does, resist a change in voltage. It holds a certain amount of energy per charge (voltage), and to change that voltage requires current proportionally to the capacitance.
Theoretically, Capacitance is defined as the ability of a component or circuit to collect and store energy in the form of an electrical charge. Mathematically, it is defined as the ratio of the change in an electric charge in a system to the corresponding change in its electric potential.
