Which statement describes the role of a resistor in an electrical circuit?

Physics

The role of a resistor in an electrical circuit is to <u>hinder the movement of charge through a circuit</u>

Explanation:

A charge is carried through a wire by current (indicated as <em>I</em> in physics S.I connotation). Higher current means the rate at which the charge is flowing through the wire is fast. High resistance of the wire means the charge flows with difficulty hence slower. Resistance is given by the formulae;

R = V/I whereby;

R = resistance

V = voltage

I = current

As you can observe <em>R</em> (resistance) is inversely proportional to<em> I </em>(current). Meaning the higher the resistance the lower the current.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Turning a magnet very quickly would be BEST used to create an electric current</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In Electromagnetic waves electric field produces magnetic field and vice versa. A moving magnet can produce electric current. Dynamo is the best example for it. In dynamo armature is rotated between the magnets which results in the development of electric field and hence an electric current is produced in it.

-Surgen de una interacción.
-Nunca aparece una sola: son dos y simultáneas.
-Actúan sobre cuerpos diferentes: una en cada cuerpo.
-Nunca forman un par de fuerzas: tienen la misma línea de acción.
-Un cuerpo que experimenta una única interacción no está en equilibrio, pues sobre el aparece una fuerza unica que lo acelera. Para estar en equilibrio se requieren por lo menos dos interacciones.
