Vedclass · Answer

(B) The color code for orange is $3$. Since there are three orange bands,the first two bands represent the digits $3$ and $3$,and the third band represents the multiplier $10^3$. As there is no fourth band,the tolerance is assumed to be $\pm 20\%$. The resistance value is $R = (33 	imes 10^3 \pm 20\%) \Omega = (33 	ext{ k}\Omega \pm 20\%)$. The maximum value of resistance is calculated as: $R_{	ext{max}} = 33 	ext{ k}\Omega + 20\% 	ext{ of } 33 	ext{ k}\Omega$ $R_{	ext{max}} = 33000 + 0.20 	imes 33000$ $R_{	ext{max}} = 33000 + 6600 = 39600 \Omega$ $R_{	ext{max}} = 39.6 	ext{ k}\Omega$.
