CBSEENPH12037519

The given graph shows the variation of resistance of mercury in the temperature range 0 < T < 4 kelvin. Name the phenomenon shown by the graph. 

Solution
Here, in the given graph the resistance drops abruptly as the temperature is lowered, which is a characteristic trait exhibited by superconductors.
Therefore, the phenomenon of superconductivity is shown by the graph.
