SI unit of resistance is:

Answer: Ohm.

  • A Volt
  • B Ampere
  • C Ohm
  • D Siemens

Correct answer: C. Ohm

Explanation: Resistance is measured in Ohms (omega). 1 omega = 1 V/A.

In series, the same current flows through both resistors; in parallel, the current splits between branches and the voltage across each resistor is the same.

Concept context

Ohm's law, resistors, Kirchhoff's laws, Wheatstone bridge, and cells.
