Q. The voltage $V$ and current. $I$ graphs for a conductor at two different temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ are shown in the figure.

The relation between $T_1$ and $T_2$ is

Current Electricity

Solution:

The slope of $V$-$I$ graph gives the resistance of a conductor at a given temperature.

From the graph, it follows that resistance of a conductor at temperature $T_1$ is greater than at temperature $T_2$. As the resistance of a conductor is more at higher temperature and less at lower temperature, hence $T_1 > T_2$.
