  2. Electrical resistance and conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance_and...

    Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

  3. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law states that the electric current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, [1] one arrives at the three mathematical equations used to describe this relationship: [2] where I is the current through the conductor, V ...

  4. Electrical resistivity and conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and...

    The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm - metre (Ω⋅m). [1][2][3] For example, if a 1 m3 solid cube of material has sheet contacts on two opposite faces, and the resistance between these contacts is 1 Ω, then the resistivity of the material is 1 Ω⋅m. Electrical conductivity (or specific conductance) is the reciprocal of ...

  5. Dependent source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_source

    Here, , according to Ohm's Law. In the theory of electrical networks, a dependent source is a voltage source or a current source whose value depends on a voltage or current elsewhere in the network. [1] Dependent sources are useful, for example, in modeling the behavior of amplifiers. A bipolar junction transistor can be modeled as a dependent ...

  6. Gurzhi effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurzhi_effect

    The Gurzhi effect was theoretically predicted [1][2] by Radii Gurzhi in 1963, and it consists of decreasing of electric resistance of a finite size conductor with increasing of its temperature (i.e. the situation for some temperature interval). Gurzhi effect usually being considered as the evidence of electron hydrodynamic transport [3][4][5][6 ...

  7. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance , [ 14 ] one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship: [ 15 ] I = V R , {\displaystyle I={\frac {V}{R}},}

  8. Lumped-element model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumped-element_model

    Representation of a lumped model consisting of a voltage source and a resistor. The lumped-element model (also called lumped-parameter model, or lumped-component model) is a simplified representation of a physical system or circuit that assumes all components are concentrated at a single point and their behavior can be described by idealized mathematical models.

  9. Negative resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_resistance

    The resistance is the ratio of voltage to current, the inverse slope of the line (in I–V graphs where the voltage is the independent variable) and is constant. Negative resistance occurs in a few nonlinear (nonohmic) devices. [19] In a nonlinear component the I–V curve is not a straight line, [4][20] so it does not obey Ohm's law. [19]
