Resistance and Ohm’s Law SPH4C
Resistance is the property of substances that impedes the free flow of electrons.
Resistance is the property of substances that impedes the free flow of electrons. It is measured in units of Ohms (W). Resistance
Loads such as lights and heating elements have a resistance: they impede the flow of electrons and convert the energy of electrons into another form of energy such as light or heat. Loads and Resistance
A resistor is a load placed in a circuit simply to impede the flow of electrons and thus control the current to the rest of the circuit. Resistors
Resistors and Resistance The resistance of a resistor is typically indicated by colour-coded bands: Resistors and Resistance
