If a resistor that is color-coded red-red-brown-silver is connected to a 15 V source, what is the maximum current that can flow?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The color code for the resistor is red-red-brown-silver, which corresponds to the values 2-2-1-10%. The resistance of the resistor is therefore 220 ohms. The maximum current that can flow through the resistor is given by Ohm's law: I = V/R = 15 V / 220 ohms = 0.0682 A = 68.2 mA.
