Physics · Ohm's law, electrical resistance, I-V characteristics of Ohmic and non-ohmic conductors
Resistors are generally colour coded to:
Resistors are generally colour coded to:
- A. Indicate the type of the circuit in which they are to be used
- B. Identify whether they are ohmic or non-ohmic
- C. Determine their values in ohm
- D. Determine whether they are wire wound or composition resistors
Step-by-step solution
Resistor color codes are a standard system used to display the resistance value and tolerance of a resistor, allowing easy identification without needing to measure it with a multimeter. They do not indicate circuit type, ohmic nature, or construction type.
