Temperature of a conductor increases by $5 ^\circ $C passing electric current for some time. The increase in its temperature when double current is passed through the same conductor for the same time is $ ^ \circ C $
$ \triangle Q\, \alpha\, I^2 $ V is same so $ P_1 = { V^2 \over R_1 } and P_2 = {V^2 \over R_2} $
So, slope of rho - T curve is negative & it is dependent upon T i.e. it is not constant. So, alternative (3) is right choice.
