Electrical resistance and conductance are two fundamental concepts in electrical engineering and physics that describe how materials respond to the flow of electric current. ### Electrical Resistance **Definition**: Electrical resistance is a measure of the opposition that a material offers to the flow of electric current. It is denoted by the symbol \( R \). **Unit**: The unit of resistance is the ohm (Ω).
