Intro to Robotics: Resistor Quiz

A resistor with color bands orange, yellow, yellow, and silverhas a resistance of:

• A. 330 ohms with a 5% tolerance

• B. 340 kohms with a 10% tolerance

• C. 34 kohms with a 10% tolerance

• D. 100 ohms with a 10% tolerance

The color bands on a resistor indicate its:
