- A. Capacitance
- B. Inductance
- C. Resistance
- D. None of above
Step-by-step solution
Resistance is the property that opposes the flow of electric current (electrons) in a conductor. It is defined by Ohm's law, which states V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance. Capacitance stores electrical energy, inductance opposes changes in current, and resistance directly impedes current flow.
