Problem

Four devices P, Q, R and S were tested at two different voltages. Their readings are listed below: • P: (1 V,  0.25 A)(1\,\text{V},\;0.25\,\text{A}) and (4 V,  1.00 A)(4\,\text{V},\;1.00\,\text{A}) • Q: (2 V,  0.40 A)(2\,\text{V},\;0.40\,\text{A}) and (6 V,  1.10 A)(6\,\text{V},\;1.10\,\text{A}) • R: (1 V,  0.30 A)(1\,\text{V},\;0.30\,\text{A}) and (4 V,  1.60 A)(4\,\text{V},\;1.60\,\text{A}) • S: (2 V,  0.50 A)(2\,\text{V},\;0.50\,\text{A}) and (6 V,  1.60 A)(6\,\text{V},\;1.60\,\text{A}) Which device behaves as an ohmic conductor? (a) Device\;S (b) None\;of\;the\;devices (c) Device\;P (d) Device\;Q
