The letter "R" is the symbol for:

  1. A impedance
  2. B reluctance
  3. C reactance
  4. D resistance

Correct answer: D — resistance. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

In any electrical circuit, "resistance" is the property that opposes the flow of electric current, and the letter "R" is the standard symbol used to represent this concept in formulas and diagrams. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
