Answer» Correct options are:- (B) and (C) Transistors and Diodes are examples of non- ohmic resistances, as their V-I graph is constant curve. The correct option is (B) transistor and (c) Diode. A non-ohmic resistance is a resistance which does not follow the Ohm’s law. Ohm’s law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. The main Characteristic of Ohmic resistance is the VI curve which is a straight line. The diode does not have a straight line as a VI curve. The copper wire has a straight line as a VI graph. The filament lamp has a straight line as a VI graph. The carbon resistor has a straight line as a VI graph. So, the diode is a non-ohmic resistance. |
