The colour code of 102 resistance with 5% tolerance is
Correct answer: C. black, brown, black, gold
- A. black, black, brown, silver
- B. brown, black, black, gold
- C. black, brown, black, gold
- D. brown, brown, black, gold
Explanation
The colour code 102 corresponds to the resistance value of 1, 0, and 2 (brown, black, black). The tolerance of 5% is represented by the gold band.Incorrect options: (a) The silver band indicates a tolerance of 10%.(b) The gold band indicates a tolerance of 5%, but the resistance value is incorrect.(d) This combination does not correspond to the resistance value of 102.

About Current Electricity
Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.

In the electrolysis process of CuSO4, Cu is deposited
During electrolysis, positive ions migrate towards the cathode (negative electrode) and get reduced. In the case of CuSO4, Cu ions get reduced and deposited onto the cathode.Incorrect options: (a) The anode is where oxidation occurs, not deposition of copper. (c) Copper is specifically deposited at the cathode during the electrolysis of CuSO4. (d) Copper is indeed deposited during the electrolysis process.
