Question

A student carries out an experiment and plots the V-I graph of three samples of nichrome wire with resistances $R_{1}, R_{2}$ and $R_{3}$ respectively. What is the relation between $R_{1}, R_{2}$ and $R_{3}$ ?

Open in App

Solution

Resistance of each wire is given by $R = \frac{V}{I}$
= Slope of the V-I graph
From the given graph, it is clear that the slope is highest for $R_{1}$ and least for $R_{3}$ .
Hence, we can conclude that $R_{1} > R_{2} > R_{3}$
