Lesson 3: The Resistor


Insulators, Conductors and Resistor. They're all related, now let's learn how.

 

Lecture 3 Lesson Page - http://www.pyroelectro.com/edu/basics/resistor/

The resistor is the first fundamental component that anyone studies when they start learning about electronics. Ideas like what is an insulator or a conductor are introduced and related to electrical resistance. This lesson covers all of those topics and even adds some mathematical theory called Ohm’s law.

Discussion is open, so please let us hear the answers to your homework either here on P2PU or in our forums. Or, if you have other questions, shout them out loud!
