Question
What kind of graph is obtained by plotting values of V and I Why?
✓
Answer
The V - I graph (at constant temperature) for a conductor following the Ohm’s law is a straight line with a positive slope.
The slope of the graph with current on the vertical axis and potential difference on the horizontal axis represents the Resistance of the material of the conductor.
The slope of the graph with current on the vertical axis and potential difference on the horizontal axis represents the Resistance of the material of the conductor.
