Voltage sources provide electromotive force (EMF) or potential energy that allows current to flow in electrical circuits. An ideal voltage source has zero output resistance and supplies a constant voltage over a range of output currents. Similarly, an ideal current source has infinite output resistance and provides a constant current over a range of output voltages. Resistors are key components that provide resistance to control the flow of electrical current. They develop a potential difference called voltage between their leads according to Ohm's law, where voltage equals current times resistance.

Voltage source is a source of potential energy of an electromotive force (DGE) or electromotive force (EMF).

DGE or voltage without this there is no current flow occurs in the electrical circuit. A perfect voltage source has zero output resistance and a constant output voltage, over a specified range of output current. A perfect current source has infinite output resistance and a constant output current, over a specified range of output voltage. The output resistance of the source can be either zero or infinite. Therefore, a value is used which is achievable in practice.

Voltage Formula:

Current is the movement of electrical charge - the flow of electrons through the electronic circuit. Current is measured in AMPERES (AMPS, A or I). Current would be the flow of water moving through the tube (wire). There are a number of free electrons that are in place in all conductive material and semiconductor material. These electrons appear at random drift in all directions from one atom to atom in the structure of the material.

Current Formula:

Resistors are fundamentally important electronic components, providing accurate amounts of resistance to electrical currents. Without resistors, other components use large amounts of current from a power source and burn up. Resistors also develop a potential difference, called voltage, between their two leads. If you know the current in a resistor and its resistance value in ohms, you can easily calculate the potential difference.
