Define resistance and explain..

Answer 1

resistance is. the property of an element through which it opposes the flow of current.

Answer 2

$\Huge\bf\purple{\mid{\overline{\underline{Answer}}}\mid}$

Resistance:-

It is the property of a conductor to resist the flow of charges through it.

Its S.I unit is ohm (Ω).

R = V/I

And here,

• R = Resistance

• V = voltage and

• I = current.

Factors on which the resistance of a conductor depends:

• Resistance depends on its length (L)

• Resistance depends on its cross sectional area (A)

• Resistance depends on the nature of material

$\sf{ \pink{R\propto \dfrac{L}{A}}}$

$\sf{ \red{R=\rho \dfrac{L}{A}} }$

Where "ρ" (rho) is proportionally constant known as resistivity of the material of conductor.
