Calculate the element resistance.
To cause current flow continuously around circuit, driving force
is required, just circulating pump required drive water around a
central heating system.
Ohm’s law
In 1826, Ohm published details experiment had done investi-
gate the relationship between the current passing through and the poten-
tial difference between the ends wire. This driving force the electromotive force (emf).d.
