Description
Resistance
Resistance is the part of an electrical circuit that slows down the flow of electric current. It’s a bit like friction, but for electricity. When electrons move through wires or other materials, resistance makes it harder for them to flow. This can turn some of the electrical energy i...

Resistance is when something slows down the flow of electric charges in a circuit.
You can think of it like obstacles that make it harder for electricity to move through a wire.
Just like walking t...
