In an experiment, the following measurements were taken;
Voltage/V Current/A
12.00 0.035
10.00 0.031
8.00 0.025
6.00 0.018
4.00 0.015
2.00 0.010

How would you include values of V^10 in a table along with the results above so that a graph of current (y-axis) can be plotted against V^10 (x-axis).

Are you using an application such as excel to do this? If so...

simply make another column titled "V^10" to the right of Current. Put in the values for V^10; Then Insert a graph (whatever type you need) Then when the graph is up right click on it and select "insert data" then there will be a pop up that will have you select which data goes on which axis..


Hope this helps somewhat...If you still need help let me know and I'll do what I can to show you.

It's a physics practical experiment. CIE expects the graph to be linear but I'm getting a curved trend.
