As the potential across the resistor increased, the current through the resistor increased. If the change in current is proportional to the voltage, the data should be in a straight line and it should go through zero. In these two examples, how close is the y-intercept to zero? Is there a proportional relationship between voltage and current? If so, write the equation for each run in the form of potential = constant x current. (Use a numerical value for the constant.) When the 10 Ohm resistor was used, the y-intercept was 0.001969 V where I is the current and voltage is V (9.788)I+ 00.91969). When the 51 Ohm resistor was used, the y-intercept was 0.0006104 V, so both were very close to zero. The voltage and current for the 51 Ohms resistor is V = (50.071 +0.00061 04. Compare the constant in each of the above equations to the resistance of each resistor.Explanation / Answer
here we are given with two resistors 10 ohms and 51 ohms
for the 10 ohm resistor from the graph we can see that
0.473 = R(0.0481)
R= (0.473 / 0.0481)
= 9.83 ohms
in the similar manner for the 51 ohm resistor
0.551 = R(0.0105)
R = (0.551 / 0.0105)
= 52.476 ohms.
from the result we can observe that the constants in each of the above equation are nearly equal to the slopes of their intercepts and are also equal to the resistance of their respective resistors
