49. As the temperature of a metallic conductor increases,
A its resistance increases because the ions in the conductor
expand making them more likely to obstruct and slowdown the flow of electrons.
B its resistance increases because the ions in the conductorvibrate with bigger amplitude, making them more likelyto obstruct and slow down the flow of electrons.
C its resistance decreases because the ions in theconductor expand making them more likely to obstructand slow down the flow of electrons.
D its resistance decreases because the i0ns in theconductor vibrate with bigger amplitude, making themmore likely to obstruct and slow down the flow ofelectrons. ( )

A As the voltage increases, the current flowing throughthe tungsten wire is increased proportionally accordingto Ohm's law.
B As current increases, the temperature increases and
therefore the resistance of the tungsten wire in the lightbulb increases.
C As current increases, the temperature increases and
therefore the resistance of the tungsten wire in the lightbulb decreases.
D As current increases, the temperature increases and
therefore the charges f lowing through the tungsten wirein the light bulb increase. (
