What is a resistor? • Opposes the path of electrical current. • Produce heat energy.
Ohm s Law: • Ohm's law applies to electrical circuits; it states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference or voltage across the two points, and inversely proportional to the resistance between them. • The mathematical equation that describes this relationship is: V=R.I
Grouping of resistors: • Parallel grouping. • Series grouping.
Parallel Grouping: 1/Req = 1/ R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + 1/R4 + ….
Series Connection: • Req = R1 + R2 + R3 + R4 + ….
Our body resistance • If dry about 5ooooᾩ. • It is dangre to exposd to direct elctric current
