Question

The cause of resistance to the flow of charge within an electrical wire is?. a) mobile charge carriers collide with atoms of the resistor. b) mobile charge carriers have mass (possess inertia) which resists their motion. c) the electric field that causes charge flow diminishes with distance. d) charge is consumed or used up as it flows through the wire.

Answer 1

b) mobile charge carriers have mass (possess inertia) which resists their motion

Answer 2

The correct answer among the choices listed is option B. The cause of resistance to the flow of charge within an electrical wire is the mobilecharge carriers have mass (possess inertia) which resists their motion.
