Electrical resistance (measured in Ohms) is a measure of how much current will flow through a circuit for a given voltage. It is the reciprocal of conductance. A related property is electrical resistivity, ρ which is property inherent to the material, given by
For DC circuits, resistance is related to voltage and current by Ohm's law,
For AC circuits, it is the real part of impedance.
