MCQ
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.

Answer

  1. Determine their values in ohm.

Explanation:

Components and wires are coded with colors to identify their value and function. The colors brown, red, green, blue, and violet are used as tolerance codes on 5-band resistors only.

So,Resistors are generally colour coded to determine their values in ohm.
