When asked to describe resistance you say, "It is an object's ability to (A) accept the flow of current and is measured in ohms." (B) accept the flow of electrons and is measured in volts." (C) reflect the neutral particles and is measured in volts." (D) reflect the positive particles and is measured in ohms."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know that resistance is measured in ohms, so B and C can be immediately eliminated. @Abhisar I think the answer is A

OpenStudy (abhisar):

It's basically the property to resist the flow of current.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Resistance is a measure of how well a material conducts an electric charge and is measured in ohms. That's another reason that I think the answer could be A

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Resistance is actually how well an object opposes the flow of current. More the resistance more is the object insulator. But yes from the options I agree with your choice.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Or may be it's D

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Because it says the ability to reflect charge.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's okay. I got A right. :)
