How will you repersent a resistance of `3700 Omega +- 10%` by colour code?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The value of carbon resistance
`=3700 Omega +- 10% = 37 xx10^(2)+- 10%`
The colour assigned to numbers 3,7 and 2 are orange, violet and red respectively. For `+-10%` accuracy, the colour is silver. Thus, the bands of colour on carbon resistor in sequence are orange,violet red,and silver.
