A resistance having rating 10 ohms, 10 W is likely to be a__________?
Correct answer: C. wire wound resistor
- A. metallic resistor
- B. carbon resistor
- C. wire wound resistor
- D. variable resistor
Explanation
A 10 ohm, 10 watt resistor must dissipate substantial power, for which wire-wound construction is more suitable than a typical carbon resistor. Wire winding also provides good heat handling and relatively high power ratings.
