A resistor is a special load in a circuit that slows down the flow of electrons. Resistors are passive electrical components that resist the flow of current, causing a voltage drop across them and dissipating energy in the form of heat. This property allows them to control the amount of current in a circuit and protect components from damage due to excessive current flow.

Special load in a circuit that slows down the flow of electrons?

Loads do not 'slow down' electron flow. They effect the magnitude of a current, not its speed!


The of a circuit tends to slow down the movement of electrons?

The "impedance" of a circuit slows down the movement of electrons. This can be resistive, reactive or a combination of both.


What is is the special force which stops things moving or which slows down moving things?

The special force that stops things from moving or slows them down is called friction. Friction is the resistance encountered when one object moves over another, creating heat and wearing down the surfaces in contact.


What slows down electrons?

Decrease in temperature, the closer you get to zero kelvin the slower the electrons move, until they may stop, and be snapped off causing transmutation.

What slows an electrical current?

Factors that can slow down an electrical current include resistance in the conductor, length of the conductor, and presence of any insulating materials. Resistance converts electrical energy into heat, reducing the current flow. Longer conductors offer more resistance to the flow of electrons, which slows down the current. Insulating materials can also impede the flow of electrons in a circuit.
