Give differences between ohmic and non-ohmic conductors.
The five differences between ohmic and non-ohmic conductors are:
Ohmic conductors | Non-ohmic conductors |
1. Ohmic conductors are the type of conductors that work on the principle of ohm’s law. | 1.Non-ohmic conductors are conductors that do not follow ohm’s law. |
2. For a varying current and voltage, the resistance of the ohmic-conductors remains constant. | 2. The resistance of the non ohmic conductor varies on changing current, voltage, and temperature. |
3. The relationship between current and voltage is linear. | 3. The relationship between current and voltage is not linear. |
4. Examples of ohmic conductors are metals and resistors. | 4. Examples of non-ohmic conductors are diodes and semiconductors. |
5. For ohmic conductors the resistance always remains constant. | 5. For non-ohmic conductors the resistance increases with an increase in temperature. |
