The correct Answer is:
To determine the color of the second band of a color-coded carbon resistor with a resistance of 670 Ω, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the Resistance to Standard Format The resistance value of 670 Ω can be expressed in the standard format used for color coding. This is done by writing it as: \[ 670 \, \Omega = 67 \times 10^1 \, \Omega \] ### Step 2: Identify the Significant Figures In the standard format \( 67 \times 10^1 \): - The first significant figure is 6. - The second significant figure is 7. - The exponent (1) indicates the multiplier of \( 10^1 \). ### Step 3: Determine the Colors for Each Significant Figure Using the standard color code for resistors: - The color for the first significant figure (6) is **Blue**. - The color for the second significant figure (7) is **Violet**. - The color for the multiplier (1) is **Brown**. ### Step 4: Identify the Color of the Second Band Since we are interested in the color of the second band, which corresponds to the second significant figure (7), the color is **Violet**. ### Final Answer The color of the second band of the resistor is **Violet**. ---
