In basic circuit analysis using Ohm’s law, which type of electrical load is modeled as containing pure resistance only (i.e., no inductance or capacitance)?

• A. A purely reactive load (with zero resistance)
• B. An inductive load (e.g., an ideal inductor)
• C. A capacitive load (e.g., an ideal capacitor)
• D. A resistive load (e.g., an ideal resistor)

Answer: (D)
