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.
  • ✓
    Determine their values in ohm.
  • D
    Determine whether they are wire wound or composition resistors.
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
Determine their values in ohm.
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.
