The opposition to the flow of electrical current?

In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.


What is the term for opposition to current flow within a circuit?

The term Impedance (Z) is used to quantify the opposition to current flow in a circuit.


Total opposition to current flow in an AC circuit with both resistance and reactance is called?

Impedance.


What is the unit to measure the opposition to the flow of electrical current called?

Answer: Inductive reactance is the opposition to the change in current in an electrical circuit and is abbreviated Xl. Answer: The opposition to current flow is called resistance (for DC), or impedance (for AC; often just called resistance); the unit for both is the ohm.


The opposition to current is called?

It is nothing but giving current in opposite direction (positive to negative andnegative to positive)


Total opposition to current flow in an AC circuit?

I oppose alternating current. Direct is the only way for me. That is 1 in opposition.


What is the Opposition to current flow in a inductive ac circuit?

Back EMF.


What is describe as the total opposition to current flow in a circuit?

Total resistance.


The opposition to the flow of electrons through a conductor?

In the simplest case, that would be resistance - but there is also another type of opposition (only relevant for AC) called reactance. The combined effect of resistance and reactance is called impedance.


What is the total opposition to current flow called?

The total opposition to current flow is called resistance. It is measured in ohms and represents the difficulty that a material offers to the flow of electric current.


The total opposition to current in a series RC circuit is called?

Assuming you are talking about an AC circuit, then the total opposition to the flow of current in an R-C circuit is called its impedance (symbol: Z), measured in ohms. This is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance (R) and its capacitive reactance (XC) -each also measured in ohms.


What is resistance reading?

A measurement of opposition to electric current flow in a component or circuit.
