Question
- Draw a V-I graph for a conductor obeying Ohm’s law.
- What does the slope of V–I graph for a conductor represent?

Solution

-
Use the Y-axis to plot V against I, and the X-axis to plot I. As can be seen in the illustration, the graphs are determined to be straight lines. So, the ohm law is confirmed.
