Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The color bands orange, orange, red, and gold on a resistor indicate a resistance value of $3.3 \mathrm { k } \Omega$ with a tolerance of $\pm 5 \%$. The first two bands (orange, orange) represent the digits (3, 3), the third band (red) indicates the multiplier ($10^2$), and the fourth band (gold) specifies the tolerance ($\pm 5 \%$).
