... The resistance of a piece of wire is less than 0.01 Ω. Some of the most useful electronic components are resistors with specific resistances anywhere from 1 Ω to 10 MΩ. The force that drives a current through a resistance is called voltage (or, by real purists, “electromotive force”). We measure vol ...
