Answer:
A light bulb is a common example of a non-ohmic conductor. Other examples of non-ohmic conductors are diodes and transistors. In a light bulb, the resistance of the filament wire will increase dramatically as it warms from room temperature to operating temperature.
please make me as a brainliest.

Applications of non-Ohmic conductors in everyday life are:
1. Incandescent light bulb
- An incandescent bulb filament has low resistance.
- When it is connected to power, there is a rapid inflow of current.
- This heats up the filament to extremely high temperatures.
- As a result, the bulb glows.
- After some time, the resistance will increase and the current flow will be back to normal.
2. Thermistor
- It is a heat-sensitive device used for measurement.
- They are made of semiconductor material.
- Their resistance varies quickly with temperature.
3. Semiconductor diode
- A diode ensures the flow of current in one direction and therefore it is used in many everyday devices.
- It has no resistance in the forward direction.
- But has infinite resistance in the reverse direction.
4. Semiconductor devices
- Semiconductor devices are mostly made of silicon and germanium.
- In devices made of these materials, the resistance varies with varying voltages.
- This property protects devices from overheating.
