💡 Analysis & Explanation
Understanding Resistance ▼
Electrical resistance is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly it resists or impedes the steady flow of electric current through it.
Unit Definitions ▼
Ampere measures the current itself, Volt measures the electrical potential difference, and Coulomb measures the total electrical charge.
Specific Naming Convention ▼
The standard international unit established to quantify this opposing force is named in honor of a pioneering German physicist who formulated the laws of current flow.
Conclusion ▼
Therefore, the correct SI unit for electrical resistance is the Ohm.
