Resistance is the measure of difficulty electrons have in flowing through a particular object.<ref name="rf1">http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/circuits/Lesson-3/Resistance</ref> It is similar to the friction an object experiences when moving or being moved across a surface. Resistance is measured in ohms; 1 ohm is equal to 1 volt of electrical difference per 1 ampere of current.<ref name="rf2">http://www.electricitycentral.com/articles/relationships.htm</ref> Resistance can be measured with an analog or digital multimeter or ohmmeter. | Resistance is the measure of difficulty electrons have in flowing through a particular object.<ref name="rf1">http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/circuits/Lesson-3/Resistance</ref> It is similar to the friction an object experiences when moving or being moved across a surface.
