A carbon resistor of 47 ± 4.7   kΩ is to be marked with rings of different colours for its identification. The colour code sequence will be:
Options
- AYellow - Green - Violet - Gold
- BYellow - Violet - Orange - Silver
- CViolet - Yellow - Orange - Silver
- DGreen - Orange - Violet - Gold
Correct answer
B. Yellow - Violet - Orange - Silver
Step-by-step solution
Given resistance of a carbon resistor is R = 47 ± 4.7 × 10 3 Where according to color code of carbon resistor given digits are digit 4 for yellow color, digit 7 for violet color, the multiplier 10 3 for orange color and tolerance 4 · 7 47 = 10 % for silver color. That's why as per color code, the sequence of colors rings are Yellow - Violet - Orange - Silver
