Description: Resistors | Electricity | Physics | FuseSchool Resisting means to withstand something and that’s what electrical resistors and resistance in an electrical circuit does. In this video we’re going to learn about electrical resistance and resistors. An electric current is the flow of electric charge (composed of negative electrons) through a conductor. It is measured in coulombs per second also known as amps or amperes. The conductor is made of atoms joined in a metallic lattice of free electrons. As the current flows through the conductor, the electrons collide with the atoms. Energy is thus transferred for example to heat. This explains why a wire, with electricity flowing through it, often feels warm to the touch.

Our teachers and animators come together to make fun & easy-to-understand videos in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Maths & ICT. VISIT us at fuseschool.org, where all of our videos are carefully organised into topics and specific orders, and to see what else we have on offer. Comment, like and share with other learners. You can both ask and answer questions, and teachers will get back to you. These videos can be used in a flipped classroom model or as a revision aid.
