CURRENT ALSO COMES WITH RESISTANCE!

ELECTRONS COLLIDE WITH THE FIXED POSITIVELY CHARGED ATOMS IN THE MTEAL AND ARE RETARDED

SLOWED DOWN

THIS IS RESISTANCE

Electrons drift slowly against electric field direction

 

 

Ohm's law :  Resistance is constant and independent of field and we say that

 

V/I = Resistance (linear relation)

 

 

Unit of resistance is Ohms
