Resistor


A linear resistor is a two-terminal, linear, passive electronic component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. The current through a resistor is in direct proportion to the voltage across the resistor's terminals. Thus, the ratio of the voltage applied across a resistor's terminals to the intensity of current through the resistor is called resistance. This relation is represented by

I=V/R

I-Current Through The Resistor
V-Voltage Through The Resistor
R-Resistance Of The Resistor
