How to Calculate and Solve for Resistance | Electric Resistivity

Last Updated on August 8, 2022

The resistance is illustrated by the image below.

To compute for resistance, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Voltage (V) and Current (I).

The formula for calculating resistance:

R = V / I

Where:

R = Resistance
V = Voltage
I = Current

Let’s solve an example;
Find the resistance when the voltage is 22 and the current is 11.

This implies that;

V = Voltage = 22
I = Current = 11

R = V / I
R = 22 / 11
R = 2

Therefore, the resistance is 2Ω.

Nickzom Calculator – The Calculator Encyclopedia is capable of calculating the resistance.
