Current Electricity

  1. The resistance of a discharge tube is​​
    1. zero
    2. ohmic
    3. non-ohmic
    4. infinity
Correct Option: C

In discharge tube the current is due to flow of positive ions and electrons. Moreover, secondary emission of electrons is also possible. So V-I curve is non-linear; hence resistance is non-ohmic.
