Color bands for 1.5 Ohm resistor will be?

Abhishek John said:   10 years ago
First Band Red = 2.

Second Band Orange = 3.

(Repeat) Multiplier Band Orange = 10*^3 or 1000.

Silver = +/-10%.

Total = 23000*(+/-10%).

I = V/R.

I = 50/23000A.
I = 0.00217A.
I = 2.17mA - Answer.

Or 2.2mA.

V=50 V, I=?

R = red, orange, orange, silver i.e. 23x10^3 = 23 k.

I = V/R.

= 50/23000.

= 2.17 mA.
