Question

An electric circuit consisting of a 0.5 m long nichrome wire XY, an ameter, a voltmeter four cells of 1.5 V each and a plug key was set up.
(i) Draw a diagram of this electric circuit to study the relation between the potential difference maintained between the points 'X' and 'Y' and the electric current flowing through XY.
(ii) Folloiwng graph was plotted between V and I values:
What would be the values of $\frac{V}{I}$ ratios when hte potential difference is 0.8 V, 1.2 V and 1.6 vrespectively ?
What conclusion do you draw from these values?

What would be hte values of $\frac{V}{I}$ ratios when the potential differece is 0.8 V, 1.2 V and 1.6 V respectively what conclusion do you draw from these values?
(iii) What is the resistance of the wire?
