What is the opposition to the flow of electric current?

Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current. It is caused by collisions between electrons and atoms in a material, which leads to the conversion of electrical energy into heat. The unit of resistance is the ohm (Ω).


Rate of flow of electric charge is measured in?

Electric current is the rate of charge flow past a given point in an electric circuit, measured in Coulombs/second which is named Amperes. In most DC electric circuits, it can be assumed that the resistance to current flow is a constant so that the current in the circuit is related to voltage and resistance by Ohm's law. The standard abbreviations for the units are 1 A = 1C/s.


What is the SI unit of resistance?

The SI unit of resistance is the ohm, represented by the symbol Ω. It is named after the German physicist Georg Simon Ohm, and is used to measure the opposition to the flow of electric current in a circuit.

What is the difference between an ampere and an ohm?

An ampere (A) is a unit of electric current, measuring the rate of flow of electric charge. Ohm (Ω) is a unit of electrical resistance, measuring how much a material resists the flow of current. In simple terms, amps measure the flow of electricity, while ohms measure the resistance to that flow.


What is the cgs unit of resistance?

The cgs unit of resistance is the "electrostatic unit of resistance" (esu) or "statohm". It is defined as the resistance in a system where a 1 cm gap between two conductors has a resistance of 1 statohm.
