zero resistance
No electrical opposition
Zero resistance describes a complete absence of opposition or obstacles.
In physics, it's the state of superconductors where electrical current flows without energy loss.
Figuratively, it means encountering no pushback: The proposal met zero resistance from the board.
The phrase often appears in contexts where opposition was expected but didn't materialize.
