Understand that electrical resistance is a measure of how much a material opposes the flow of electric current.
Recall Ohm's law, which relates voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) through the formula \(R = \frac{V}{I}\).
Identify the SI units for voltage and current: voltage is measured in volts (V) and current in amperes (A).
Using the formula \(R = \frac{V}{I}\), the unit of resistance is derived as volts per ampere, which is defined as the ohm (\(\Omega\)).
Therefore, the SI unit used to measure electrical resistance is the ohm (\(\Omega\)).
