Which material can show more than one voltage for the same current, so its V-I relation is not unique?
AGallium arsenide
BPure copper wire
CNichrome wire
DSilver wire
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Gallium arsenide
Gallium arsenide has a V-I curve in which a single current value corresponds to more than one voltage, a clear departure from Ohm's law.
