Tungsten is an example of a conductor that does not obey Ohm's Law. If you were to plot a graph of current against voltage, over a range of voltages, you will find that the result is a curve - showing that current is not directly proportional to voltage, which is the requirement for Ohm's Law.
While the ratio of voltage to current will indicate what the resistance happens to be for that particular ratio, you will find that, for tungsten, that ratio continually changes as you increase voltage - proving that tungsten does not obey Ohm's Law. The general rule is that if there is no straight-line relationship between voltage and current, then Ohm's Law doesn't apply.
The equation, R = V/R, does notrepresent Ohm's Law; it is derived from the definition of the ohm. Ohm's Law is a law of constant proportionality and constant proportionality only applies to linear conductors.
Ohm's Law always applies. In every case. That is why we call it a law. Its a matter of perspective.
Ohm's Law says that resistance is voltage divided by current. Nothing more. Nothing less. In particular, it does not say that the "resistor" has constant resistance.
At large currents, conductors get warm. Temperature changes their resistance. Ohm's Law still applies - you just need a new value of resistance.
Take an ordinary 40 watt light bulb. At operating power, it has a resistance of about 360 ohms. When cold, it has a resistance of about 27 ohms. Does it obey Ohm's Law? You bet it does - You just need to understand what the law says and what it does not say.
AnswerOhm's Law most definitely does NOT state that 'resistance is voltage divided by resistance'! It states, essentially, that the ratio of voltage to current must be constant for variations in voltage -which is not the same thing!For Ohm's Law to apply, then, the ratio of voltage to current must remain constant for variations in voltage. So devices such as diodes, or conductors such as tungsten, do not obey Ohm's Law and are, for that reason, termed 'non-linear' or 'non-ohmic'. If you conducted an experiment using tungsten, for example, and plotted current against variations in voltage, the result would be a curve -confirming that tungsten does notobey Ohm's Law. In other words, Ohm's Law is NOT a universal law, and only applies to some materials or devices.
To answer your question directly if, as the current gets larger, the resistance of the conductor changes (due to an increase in its temperture), then the ratio of voltage to current obviously changes too -which means that it is not obeying Ohm's Law. If, on the other hand, an increasing current does not cause a change in resistance (because any increase in temperature does not cause an increase in resistance), then the ratio of voltage to current is constant, and the conductor IS obeying Ohm's Law.
For Ohm's Law to apply, the ratio of the current through a conductor or device to the voltage across that conductor or device must be constant for variations in voltage. In other words, if you were to draw a graph of current against variations in voltage, for Ohm's Law to apply, the result MUST be a straight line.
This isn't the case for semiconductors; their graphs are curved. So, in general, they do not obey Ohm's Law. Having said that, if you study such graphs, you will find that PARTS of those curves are straight lines. So Ohm's Law does apply to those parts of the graph that are straight but NOT to those parts which are curved.
No semiconductor's do not obey ohm's laws.
I hope you mean the thermistor. If so,well it does not obey Ohms law. When current flows through the thermistor its temperature start increasing which reduces the resistance of the thermistor. A reduction in resistance at the same supply voltage will cause the current to increase. Thus it's not obeying Ohms law.

As transistors are made of semiconductors, they do notfollow Ohm's law.A: they cannot follow exactly ohms law since they are themselves no linear active devices
the vibration produced in the coil of a speaker is due to current passing through it hence it obey ohms law
Very few conductors obey Ohm's Law, and its the rise in temperature of the conductor when current flows though it that prevents it from obeying Ohm's Law. Some alloys, such as constantan, obey Ohm's Law over a limited range because, over that range, changes in temperature don't affect their resistance. It's really time that we stopped teaching Ohm's Law, as it is not universal, and applies to very few conductors and hardly any electronic components!

30 ohmsAnswerAn incandescent lamp doesn't obey Ohm's Law, because the ratio of voltage to current changes as the supply voltage is varied. All you can say is that, when the applied voltage is 9.0 V, then the resistance will happen to be 30 ohms. If you change the applied voltage to some other value, then you will find the resistance will have changed too. Ohm's Law isn't a universal law; in fact, most materials and circuit devices do not obey Ohm's Law, and tungsten, from which lamp filaments are manufactured, is an example of a metal that does not obey Ohm's Law (we call them 'non-linear' or 'non-ohmic')
which obey ohms law ANSWER: Not all potentiometers are linear some are made to follow a logarithm function some follows an exponential function. A linear potentiometer will have a linear curve. Materials that obey Ohm's Law are called 'linear' or 'ohmic'; those that don't are called 'non-ohmic' or 'non-linear'.
In point of fact, vacuum tubes do obey Ohm's law. Everything electrical obeys Ohm's law. The reason vacuum tubes don't appear to obey the law is that not every consideration takes into account the fact that vacuum tubs have dynamicresistance. Ohm's law, as applied to "pure" ohmic resistors, requires constant resistance, which no material, no matter how good, exhibits. In the real world, you have to consider that resistance can vary along with voltage and current, and this "complicates" things.
Obey The Law was created on 1926-11-05.
To find the conductance using ohms law,you take the inverse of the resistance(/R)
You should always obey the law. Religious or not.
