According to Ohm's law the graph of potential difference and current is

According to Ohm's law the graph of potential difference and current is

  • A. Straight line passing through origin
  • B. Curved
  • C. Line having an intercept on \( x \) -axis
  • D. Circular

Step-by-step solution

Ohm's law states that V = IR, where R is constant. This is a linear relationship with no intercept, so the graph of V vs. I is a straight line through the origin with slope R.
