Graph showing the variation of current versus voltage for a material Ga As is shown in the figure. Identify the region of
(i) negative resistance
(ii) where Ohm's law is obeyed.

Will current flow more easily through a thick wire or a thin wire of the same material, when connected to the same source? Why?
The relationship between the potential difference and the current in a conductor is stated in the form of a law.
1) Name the law.
2) What does the slope of V-I graph for a conductor represent?
3) Name the material used for making the connecting wire.
What are ohmic conductors? Give one exmaple. Draw a graph showing the current-voltage relationship for an ohmic conductor.
State macroscopic form of Ohm’s law.
What is non ohmic device?
An electronics hobbyist is building a radio which requires 150 Ω in her circuit, but she has only 220 Ω, 79 Ω, and 92 Ω resistors available. How can she connect the available resistors to get the desired value of resistance?
The variable resistance is called ____________.
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.
