Measure of the opposition to the flow the free electron is known as
- A. current
- B. Resistance
- C. conductance
- D. Capacitance
Step-by-step solution
Resistance is the property that opposes the flow of electric current (free electrons) in a conductor. It is measured in ohms. Current is the flow itself, conductance is the reciprocal of resistance, and capacitance stores energy, so only resistance matches the definition.
