4 A student carried out an investigation of Ohm’s Law for a simple resistor. Their results are shown in the following table.
0.5 1.5
1.0 3.0
1.5 4.2
2.0 6.5
2.5 7.6
a. Use the axes below to draw a graph of their results, making sure you draw a line of best fit.
Current (A)
b. From your graph, what voltage would be needed to generate a current of 2.0 A for this resistor? c. What current would be generated by a voltage of 3.0 V? Give reasons for your answer.
