1. What is Electrical Resistance?

Electrical Resistance is an electrical magnitude that measures the amount of the

resistance carried by the material to enable the said material to reduce the amount of
electric current that flows through the material. Also, it can be stated that all materials
are able to resist the flow of electricity up to a certain extent.

2. What is Ohm’s?

The Ohms is the International Standard Unit of measuring electrical resistance. It can
be easily defined as the resistance of electricity flowing between two points or endpoints
carrying an electrical current with a measure of one ampere when exposed to a
potential difference of one volt.

3. What is Electrical Power?

Electrical Power refers to the rate at which electricity is circulating from within an
electrical circuit. It can be described as the rate in which the energy within the circuit is
expading and is the result of the two variables namely the voltage and current .

4. Can you identify one conducting material and its resistivity?

Copper is one of metals that is able to conduct electricity well into the circuit. It is given
that metals have low resistivity rate and as a result, metals have high conductivity rate.
The resistivity rate of copper is 0.0171 Ohms.

5. What is the unit of measurement of resistance?

The unit of measurement for resistance is measured in Ohms. The value of resistance
is represented with the Greek Letter Omega (Ω).

6. What is the current in a 160V circuit if the resistance is 2Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

Current=Voltage/Resistance

C=160V/2Ω

C=80 A (80 amperes)

The current is 80 A.
7. What is the current in a 160V circuit if the resistance is 20Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

Current=Voltage/Resistance

C=160V/20Ω

C=8 A (8 amperes)

The current is 8 A.

8. What is the current in a 160V circuit if the resistance is 10Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

Current=Voltage/Resistance

C=160V/10Ω

C=16 A (16 amperes)

The current is 16 A.

9. What is the current in a 160V circuit if the resistance is 5Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

Current=Voltage/Resistance

C=160V/5Ω

C=32 A (32 amperes)

The current is 32 A

10. Based on questions 2, 3, and 4, what happens to the current in a circuit as the
resistance decreases? Increases?

From the problems stipulated in the said numbers, we can conclude that the current in
within the circuit increases because the resistance has been decreasing in every
problem. Also when the resistance increases, the current within the circuit decreases.
11. What is required to move 6A through 5Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

V=IR

Voltage= 6A x 5 Ω

Voltage= 30 V

The voltage required is 30 volts.

12. What is required to move 6A through 10Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

V=IR

Voltage= 6A x 10Ω

Voltage= 60 V

The voltage required is 60 volts.

13. What is required to move 6A through 20Ω?

Ohm’Law= (V(Voltage)=I(Current)R(Resistance)

V=IR

Voltage= 6A x 20Ω

Voltage= 120 V

The voltage required is 120 volts.

14. Based on questions 11, 12, 13, what happens to the required in a circuit as the
resistance decreases? Increases?

From the problems stipulated in the said numbers, we can conclude that the voltage
required in the circuit decreases when the resistance is decreasing. Also, the voltage
required in the circuit increases when the resistance increases.
15. Create your own problem and provide the solution.
