Current – Voltage
Graphs
Aims
(a) define resistance;
(b) select and use the equation for resistance
(c) define the ohm;
(d) state and use Ohm’s law;
(e) describe an experiment to obtain the I–V
characteristics of a resistor at constant
temperature, filament lamp and light-emitting
diode (LED);
Ohms Law
• Ohm's law states that the current through
a conductor is proportional to the voltage
across it provided that the temperature
stays constant.
R = V/I
