The current-voltage graphs for a given metallic wire at two different temperatures, \( T_1 \) and \( T_2 \) are shown in the figure. The correct relation of temperatures and resistances will be :
image

  1. A \( R_{T2} = R_{T1}, T_1 > T_2 \)
  2. B \( R_{T2} < R_{T1}, T_1 > T_2 \)
  3. C \( R_{T2} > R_{T1}, T_2 > T_1 \)
  4. D \( R_{T2} < R_{T1}, T_2 > T_1 \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( R_{T2} > R_{T1}, T_2 > T_1 \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Slope of I-V graph = \( \frac{1}{R} \) From graph, Slope \( (T_1) > \) Slope \( (T_2) \) \( \frac{1}{R_{T1}} > \frac{1}{R_{T2}} \) \( R_{T1} For a metallic wire, R increases with T, so \( R_{T1} Thus, \( R_{T2} > R_{T1}, T_2 > T_1 \)
