Answer to Question #220895 in Electric Circuits for YUL

Question

This lab focuses on an ohmic resistor. This simply means that the resistor follows Ohm’s law. Many circuit components are ohmic, but not all. Based on external reading, what are some examples of non-ohmic resistors

Answer 1

Solution;

Non ohmic circuit components are those that do not obey the Ohms law.

Ohm's law states that current is directly proportional to voltage applied across a conductor,provided all physical conditions are kept constant.

Mathematically V=IR

Examples of non-ohmic resistors include;

Thermistors

Crystal rectifiers

Diodes

Transistors

Inductor
