In an experiment to study the relationship between potential difference and current through a
resistor, a student recorded the following observations.
Potential difference (V)
2
3
4.5
5
6
Current (A)
0.08
0.12
0.15
0.20
0.24
a) Which set of values is incorrect? Give reason.
b) Find the mean value of the resistance from the given table.

Answer:
Explanation:
R= V/I = 2/0.08 = 25Ω
= 3/ 0.12= 25Ω
≠ 4.5/ 0.15= 30Ω
= 5/ 0.2 = 25Ω
= 6/ 0.24 = 25Ω
Therefore, the 3rd reading is wrong
Mean= 25+25+30+25+25/5= 130/5= 26Ω
