It is a measure of how much electric energy or pressure is in a circuit or an electric field.
Voltage
It is a rate of flow of charge.
Current
It is an opposition to the flow of current?
Resistance
Conductors have a
low
resistance.
Insulators
have a
high
resistance.
The factors affecting resistance are
length
,
cross-section-area
,
temperature
, and the
type of material.
In Length, it states that the longer the length, the
higher
its resistance. And the shorter the length, the
lower
its resistance.
In Cross-sectional-area, it states that the
fatter
the material, the
lower
its resistance, and the
thinner
the material, the
higher
its resistance.
In temperature, it states that the
higher
the temperature, the higher its resistance, and the lower the temperature, the
lower
its resistance.
In type of material, the higher the conductivity, the
lower
its resistance, and the
lower
the conductivity, the higher the resistance.
It is a cycle or path along which current flows?
Circuit
The two types of circuit are
Series
Circuit and
Parallel
Circuit.
The unit for current is
Amper/s
(
A
)
The symbol for
current
is
I.
The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit is Ohm's
Law
Power
is the rate of which
energy
can be transferred.
The unit for power is
Watt/s
(
W
)
The unit for charge is
Cuolomb
(
C
)
The unit of resistance is Ohm/s (
Omega
)
