Four sets of readings were taken for a coil kept at a constant temperature: Set\;\; Current (A)\;\; Voltage (V) 1\;\;\; 0.20\;\;\;\;\; 1.98 2\;\;\; 0.40\;\;\;\;\; 3.95 3\;\;\; 0.60\;\;\;\;\; 5.89 4\;\;\; 0.80\;\;\;\;\; 7.87 (a) Calculate resistance for each set. (b) Find the percentage variation between highest and lowest resistance. (c) Decide if the coil is ohmic within 2 % tolerance (Yes/No).
