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:
- Violet – Yellow – Orange – Silver
- Yellow – Violet – Orange – Silver
- Green – Orange – Violet – Gold
- Yellow – Green – Violet – Gold
Correct answer: Yellow – Violet – Orange – Silver
Solution
The resistance value is 47 kΩ with a tolerance of ±4.7 kΩ. Using the resistor color code, 47 corresponds to Yellow (4) and Violet (7), with Orange (×10³) as the multiplier. Silver represents a 10% tolerance. Thus, the correct sequence is Yellow – Violet – Orange – Silver.
