उत्तर
In the flow of current in a conductor, electrons are drifted. During this drift or flow, electrons mutually collide against each other and the atoms of the conductor. These collisions give rise to some obstruction to the flow of electrons. This opposition or obstruction offered by a conductor to the flow of electrons is called ‘Resistance’. According to Ohm’s law, the ratio between potential difference V and the current i, is a constant provided the temperature and physical conditions of the conductor remain unaltered. As such the ratio V/I is called the resistance, i.e., ‘Ohmic resistance’ of the conductor.
