Frage Antworten
What is voltage? Voltage can be thought of as the pressure pushing charges along a conductor, while the electrical resistance of a conductor is a measure of how difficult it is to push the charges along.
What is the resistance of a material dependent on? The resistance (R) of a material depends on its length, cross-sectional area, and the resistivity , a number that depends on the material:
