Solution

The correct option is A
True

According to Ohm's law:
$V = I \times R$ ; this means if R (resistance) is constant, current increases linearly as the voltage is increased.
At a constant temperature, following is the graph between voltage and current stated as Ohm's law.

From the above graph, we can say that the current varies linearly with potential difference.

Q. Ohm's law given a relation that the current flowing across a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across it.

According to the formula V=IR, Potential Difference is directly proportional to Current. But according to P=VI (P/I=V) Potential Difference is inversely proportional to Current. What is the cause of contradiction and what is the true fact?

Q. Potential difference=Work done/charge ⇒ Potential difference is inversely proportional to charge as,charge=current × time⇒ charge is directly proportional to current ⇒ Potential difference is directly proportional to current But this violates ohm's law which states that Potential difference is directly propprtional to current
