- Question
Four equal-value resistors are connected in parallel. Ten volts are applied across the parallel circuit and 2 mA are measured from the source. The value of each resistor is
Options- A. 12.5 Ω
- B. 200 Ω
- C. 20 KΩ
- D. 50 Ω
- Correct Answer
- 20 KΩ
Explanation10/(R/4) = 2 mA
40/R = 2 mA
R = 40/2 mA
= 40/0.002 A
= 20000 kohm (20 kohm)

- 2. The minimum resistance value for a blue, gray, red, silver resistor is
Options- A. 612 Ω
- B. 6,120 Ω
- C. 6,800 Ω
- D. 6,460 Ω Discuss
Correct Answer: 6,120 Ω
Explanation:
Because of 10% tolerance(last color silver), this resistance may vary 10% of 6800.Minimum resistance value = 6800 - 680 = 6120
Maximum resistance value = 6800 + 680 = 7480
