Two resistances \(A\) and \(B\) have colour codes orange, blue, white and brown, red, green, respectively. Then, ratio of their resistances \(A: B\) is

  1. A \(3: 1\)
  2. B \(1: 3\)
  3. C \(1: 3 \times 10^{4}\)
  4. D \(3 \times 10^{4}: 1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(3 \times 10^{4}: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Using colour code for carbon resistor, (For A) \(\begin{array}{ccc}\text { Orange } & \text { Blue } & \text { White } \\ \downarrow & \downarrow & \downarrow \\ 3 & 6 & 9\end{array}\) \(\therefore \quad R_{A}=36 \times 10^{9} \Omega\) Similarly, \((\) For \(B)\)…
