State Ohm’s law and draw a neat labelled circuit diagram containing a battery, a key, a voltmeter, an ammeter, a rheostat and an unknown resistance to verify it.

उत्तर
It states that electric current flowing through a metallic wire is directly proportional to the potential difference V across its ends provided its temperature remains the same. This is called Ohm's law.
V = IR
Experimental Verification: Reassemble the circuit according to the diagram. The circuit consists of a battery, an unknown resistance, a voltmeter with its positive terminal facing the battery's anode, and a rheostat and ammeter connected in series. With the key closed, and the rheostat set to zero, the ammeter and voltmeter should display the lowest possible readings. After that, the rheostat is adjusted step-by-step, and the values of A and V are recorded at each interval. The ratio of `"V"/"I"` is always found to be constant. This verifies Ohm's Law.

The temperature and other physical parameters of the conductor must be kept constant.

The circuit depicted in the figure is employed for studying Ohm’s Law. Instead of using a standard resistor, a student opts for a glass tube filled with mercury (tube 1), connected to the circuit through two electrodes, E1 and E2. He records the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter, thereby calculating the resistance. The student repeats the experiment by substituting tube 1 with tube 2, where the same amount of mercury fills tube 2.

Neglecting internal resistance of the cell use (> or < or =) to compare:
- the resistance in both the cases.
- the voltmeter readings in both the cases.
- the specific resistance in both the cases.
