Question 1: Most widely used general purpose resistor is the?
Answer:
Carbon resistor
Question 2: Potentiometers are made of?
Answer:
Carbon composition material formed in a broken cirle. The max ohm value is printed on the case. It has three leads are are configured to operateas a voltage divider controlling voltage by varying the circuit's resistance
Question 3: What type of resistors are even less likely to be damaged by heat?
Answer:
Wire wound resistors
Question 4: The fourth color band represents?
Answer:
The tolerance
Question 5: If a 2000 ohm resistor has tolerance of 10% what is the actual value?
Answer:
Anywhere between 1800 and 2200 ohms. 2000 x 10%=200 200-200=1800 2000+200=2200
Question 6: The second color band represents?
Answer:
The second number in the resistance value
Question 7: Potentiometers are used when?
Answer:
Circuit current flow is low.
Question 8: Fixed resistors are classified in what three categories?
Answer:
General purpose, Power, Precision
Question 9: What is this sybmol ??
Answer:
Is the Greek letter omega that abbreviates ohm. 10 ohms= 10 ?.
Question 10: These codes are called military specification codes.
Answer:
CGW RN65D 3572FJ
Question 11: What does W stand for?
Answer:
Wire Wound
Question 12: "WINS" Color White represents?
Answer:
Significant number 9 Multiplier 1,000,000,000
Question 13: The value of resistance is normally?
Answer:
Printed on the body of the resisor and followed by a ? symbol, a k or an M.
Question 14: What are the two types of variable resistors?
Answer:
Potentiometers and Rheostats
Question 15: What does the N in CGW RN65D 3572FJ mean?
Answer:
The second letter is the style. N- Metal Film, W- Wire Wound, CR- Carbon
Question 16: Carbon based resistors are used when?
Answer:
Circuits that only require the accuracy to be within 5%
Question 17: Insulators are considered to have ---to current flow?
Answer:
Maximum resistance
Question 18: Power resistors are normally made of?
Answer:
Wire wound around a core. They may be called wire wound resistors
Question 19: What is the letter J in CGW RN65D 3572FJ represent?
Answer:
J is used for special purposes. In this case means this resistor meets military specifications
Question 20: Rheostats are used when?
Answer:
With higher levels of current
Question 21: As tolerance decreases, the amount of the difference?
Answer:
Decreases Question 22: What resistor is not as likely to be damaged by heat as a carbon composition resistor?
Answer:
Carbon film resistors
Question 23: Rheostats are made of?
Answer:
Wire wound on a core in a broken circle. Its max ohm value is printed on the case They have two leads and are configured in a circuit to control current
Question 24: "YOUNG" Color Yellow represents?
Answer:
Significant number 4 Multiplier 10,000
Question 25: Carbon film resistors are smaller than?
Answer:
Carbon composition resistors
Question 26: The higher the ohmic value?
Answer:
The highter the resistance The less current flows
