The graphical representation of Ohm's law is

Correct answer: D. straight line

  • A. hyperbola
  • B. ellipse
  • C. parabola
  • D. straight line

Explanation

The graphical representation of Ohm's law is a straight line. Ohm's law states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across it, given a constant resistance (R). Mathematically, I=V/R, and when plotted on a graph with V on the x-axis and I on the y-axis, the resulting graph is a straight line.

About Current Electricity

Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
