Why is a thermistor a non ohmic conductor?

Ohm's law states that the current and potential difference (voltage) are directly proportional, provided the temperature is constant. The resistance of a thermistor is dependant on the temperature, so it does not obey Ohm's law. Components that do not obey Ohm's law are non-ohmic conductors.

What is the difference between ohmic and non ohmic elements?

An 'ohmic' resistor is one which obeys Ohm's Law. For Ohm's Law to apply, the resistance of a circuit must be constant over the range of incremental voltages applied to it. If the resistance changes over an incremental range of voltages, then it is said to be 'non-ohmic', and it does not obey Ohm's Law.


Is vacuum tube ohmic or non-ohmic and why?

Vacuum tubes are non-ohmic devices because their resistance changes with voltage and current. This non-linearity in resistance is due to the nature of the electron flow within the vacuum tube, causing it to exhibit non-ohmic behavior.
