Question

The colour code on a carbon resistor is red-red-black. the resistance of the resistor is

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

According to colour code of carbon resistors, red stands for 2, yellow for 4, blue for 6 and silver stands for 5%.

First and second band represents the first two significant figure of resistance.

Third band represents the power raised to 10 in the value of resistance.

Fourth band represents the tolerance.

Thus resistance of given carbon resistor is  24×10  

6

 Ω

Tolerance in the resistance is 10%.

Thus resistance is  24×10  

6

Ω ±10%
