Explanation
Ohm's Law: Current proportional to voltage for fixed resistance
Steps:
- Apply Ohm's Law: V = I * R, so I = V / R with R constant.
- Rearrange shows I directly proportional to V, yielding linear relationship.
- Graph of I versus V is straight line through origin with slope 1/R.
- Select option depicting this linear plot.
Why A is correct:
- Matches Ohm's Law formula, showing direct proportionality as straight line from (0,0).
Why the others are wrong:
- B: Nonlinear curve implies varying resistance, not constant.
- C: Inverse or decreasing trend contradicts positive proportionality.
- D: Flat or unrelated shape ignores voltage dependence.
Final answer: A
