When 4 V of potential difference is applied across Resistor A, 2 A of current flows through it. When 4 V of potential difference is applied across Resistor B, 1 A of current flows through it. When 12 V is applied across Resistor A, 6 A flows through it, and when 12 V is applied across Resistor B, 3 A flows through it. Which of the following is consistent with this data?
  1.Both resistors are not ohmic.
  2.Resistor A is ohmic but Resistor B is not.
  3.Resistor A is not ohmic but Resistor B is.
  4.Both resistors are ohmic.

Question 2

Doubling the potential difference across a length of copper wire causes what change to the drift speed of the charge carriers?
  1.No change occurs since drift speed is constant for copper.
  2.The drift speed halves.
  3.The drift speed doubles.
  4.The drift speed quadruples.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
