Homework Statement
Given I = Io (exp (V/Vo) -1), Io = 1 A, Vo = 1 V, R = 1 ohm
(i) Find R when V = 5 Volt
(ii) Find R when V = 10 Volt
(iii) Plot the graph of V vs I
(iv) Explain why the Ohm’s law can’t be applied
Homework Equations
V = I*R
The Attempt at a Solution
(i) Subs. to the equation given, i got I = (e^5 ) - 1. Then R = V / I = 5 / [(e^5 ) - 1] ohm
(ii) Use the same method as (i), I got R = 10 / [(e^10 ) - 1] ohm
I'm not sure I can use V=I*R, but I don't know the other way to find R
(iii) the graph will be exponential curve similar to y = e^x
(iv) The Ohm's law can't be applied because the relation between V and I is not linear.
Do I get it right?
Thanks
