Correct Answer - Option 1 : Ohm's law

Concept:

Ohms’ law(General Definition) 

 At constant temperature, the current through a resistance is directly proportional to the potential difference across the resistance.

V = R I

Where V is the potential difference, R is resistance and I is the current flowing

Current density (J): The electric current per unit area is called current density.

\(Current~density~\left( J \right)=\frac{Current~\left( I \right)}{Area~\left( A \right)}\)

Conductivity (σ): The property of a conductor due to which the current flows through it is called the conductivity of that conductor.

\(Resistance~\left( R \right)=\frac{\rho ~l}{A}\)

Where ρ is resistivity = 1/σ, l is the length and A is an area of the conductor

Electric field (E) = potential difference (V)/length (l)

Explanation:

As V = R I 

\(Resistance~\left( R \right)=\frac{\rho ~l}{A}\)

So,

\(V=\frac{\rho ~l}{A}\times I\)

\(\implies V =\left( \frac{1}{\sigma } \right)\times l\times \frac{I}{A}\)

\(\implies V=\left( \frac{1}{\sigma } \right)\times l\times J\)

\(\implies J=\sigma \times \frac{V}{l}=\sigma ~E\)

Now, Current density is actually a vector quantity and so is the electric field. 

So, the given expression can be represented as 

\(\overrightarrow{J} = \sigma \overrightarrow{E}\)

So, the correct option is Ohm's law.
