    Resistance and Their Circuits

    This document discusses electrical resistance and resistors. It defines resistance as anything that causes opposition to electric current flow in a circuit. Resistance is measured in ohms and can be affected by several factors like the material, length, cross-sectional area, and temperature. Ohm's law establishes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in DC circuits. Resistors are used to control current and voltage in circuits and are represented by zig-zag lines or boxes in schematics. Their power ratings indicate how much heat they can safely dissipate. Resistors use color bands to indicate their resistance values according to standard codes.

    Resistance and their

    Circuits
    God is my refuge and strength, a very present help in
    trouble.
    Therefore I will not fear though the earth gives way,
    though the mountains be moved into the heart of the
    sea, though its water roar and foam, though the
    mountains tremble at its swelling.
    Psalms 46:1-3
    Resistance
    Resistance is anything that causes an opposition to the
    flow of electricity in a circuit. It is used to control the
    amount of voltage and/or amperage in a circuit.
    Everything in the circuit causes a resistance (even wire).
    Resistance
    Unit of Resistance
    It is measured in OHMS (Greek symbol Ω, Omega).
    A conductor is said to have a resistance of one ohm
    when one volt causes one ampere of current to flow
    through it.
    Factors Affecting its Resistance
    Length of material: The resistance of material directly
    to its length.
    Cross- sectional Area: The resistance of a material is
    indirectly proportional to its width.
    Type of material: The type of material affects the
    amount of free electrons able to flow through it.
    Temperature: Some materials such as thermocouples
    and thermistors are design to change their resistance
    with temperature.
    Factors Affecting its Resistance
    Resistance of any material which has a uniform
     

    cross- sectional area, A ,length, l, resistivity in


    ohm- meters, can be represented in mathematical
    form as:
    Resistor Symbols
    The symbol used in schematic and electrical drawings
    for a resistor can either be a “zig-zag” type line or a
    rectangular box.
    Resistor Symbols
    IEC: International
    Electrotechnical Commission
    IEEE: Institute of Electrical
    and Electronics Engineers
    Resistor Symbols
    The two most common types of fixed resistors are
    wire wound & carbon composition.
    Carbon composition resistors are used when large
    resistance is needed while wire wound resistors with its
    metal finned body are used for very high wattage
    applications.
    Ohm’s Law

      Georg Ohm: German physicist who first discovered the
    relationship between voltage, current and resistance in any DC
    electrical circuit.
    He found that at a constant temperature, the electrical current
    flowing through a fixed linear resistance is directly proportional to
    the voltage applied across it and also inversely proportional to the
    resistance.
    Ohm’s Law
    For easy way of remembering the formulas for ohm’s
    law:
    Ohm’s Law
    A resistor or resistance
    which obeys the rules of
    ohm’s law is known as a
    linear resistor.
    Linear resistor has a
    constant resistant for all
    values of positive or
    negative voltages and
    currents.
    Resistor Power

      The unit of electrical power is in Watt(W). One watt of
    power is equal to the work done in one second by one volt of
    potential difference in moving one coulomb of charge around
    a circuit.
    The power rating of a resistor is an indication how much
    heat a resistor or resistive element can safely dissipate or
    convert into heat before damaging.
    Resistor color code
    Resistor Color Code

    There are two resistor color coded systems, Four-Band


    System & Five- Band System.
    Reading of colored bands is from left to right.
    Resistor Color Code
    Four- Band system
    Resistor Color Code
    Five- Band system
    Resistor Color Code
    Six- Band system
