In the measurement of resistance of a wire using Ohm's law, the plot between V and I is drawn as shown, then resistance

Options

  1. A0.833Ω0.833Ω
  2. B0.9Ω0.9Ω
  3. C1Ω1Ω
  4. Dnone of these

Correct answer

C. 1Ω1Ω

Step-by-step solution

We know V∝IV ∝ I, so V−IV - I curve for a ohmic devices is a straight line passing through origin. Due to some errors/carelessness during experiments, all points may not come on the same line. In this situation, we draw the most appropriate curve.

From given V−IV - I curve,
⇒R=2.52.5=1Ω⇒ R = \dfrac{2.5}{2.5} = 1Ω
