Ohm’s law is valid only when: The resistance varies linearly with voltage Temperature is constant Capacitance is high Voltage is zero Electric field is zero
Added by Christina H.
Step 1
Step 1: Recall Ohm’s law in its common form: V = I R, which implies current I is directly proportional to voltage V when resistance R is constant. Show more…

"The condition for the validity of Ohm's law is that the Temperature should remain constant Current should be proportional to voltage Resistance must be wire wound type All of the above"

Ohm's law is true (a) For metallic conductors at low temperature (b) For metallic conductors at high temperature (c) For electrolytes when current passes through them (d) For diode when current flows
