Resistance

• Does not allow electricity to flow

• The tendency for a material to oppose the flow of electrons

• The highest point of a transverse wave

• A current that only flows in one direction

Define Resistance

• Resistance is the ability of a material to conduct electricity without any hindrance.

• The tendency of a material to oppose the flow of electrons through it.

• Resistance is the measure of the voltage drop across a circuit.

• Resistance is the rate at which electric energy is converted into heat in a circuit.

What is resistance

• the rate at which a charge is flowing

• the material's tendency to resist flow of electrons

• the difference of charge between 2 points

• it is futile
