STANDARD Physics Temperature Dependence of Resistance MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

The voltage V and current I graphs for a conductor at two different temperatures T₁ and T₂ are shown in the figure. The relation between T₁ and T₂ is

Question diagram
A

T₁ > T₂

B

T₁ < T₂

C

T₁ = T₂

D

T₁ = 1/T₂

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

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 T₁ is greater than at temperature T₂. As the resistance of a conductor is more at higher temperature and less at lower temperature, hence T₁ > T₂.
