Question

The resistance of the given Carbon resistor is $$(2.4\times 10)\pm 5\mathrm{\%}$$$\mathrm{\Omega }$. What is the sequence of colors on the strips provided on the resistor?

Answer 1

Hint:We know that they have different colors which show the resistance and also they have a pattern to look at it.
We can use the code $$\mathbf{B}\mathbf{B}\mathbf{R}\mathbf{O}\mathbf{Y}\mathbf{G}\mathbf{B}\mathbf{V}\mathbf{G}\mathbf{W}$$. Here each alphabet represents the corresponding color sharing a perfect value, gradually increasing from $$0to9$$. For error notation, we use golden and silver colors.

Complete step by step answer:
We know the sequence

And for error
gold color resistance $$5\mathrm{\%}$$
Silver color resistance $$10\mathrm{\%}$$
Here from given question
$\left(2.4\times {10}^{6}1\right)5\mathrm{\%}\mathrm{\Omega }$
$$5k$$ Measure - Red
$$4$$ Measure yellow
$$10$$ Measure used for the power notation where $$6$$ measure Blue.
And last $$5k$$ is gold
So here are Red, Yellow, Blue, gold these four colors on the strips provided on the resistor.

Note:Carbon resistor is one of the most common types of electronics used.
And also I know that gold Silver is written in $$+$$ format because these are the fault of the resistance and they are used in the percent notation. They are made from a solid cylindrical resistive element with embedded wire leads or metal and caps.
