Étant donné que le rouge = 2, le violet = 7 et le jaune = 4, quelle est la valeur nominale d'une résistance dont le code de couleur se lit "rouge, violet, jaune"?

  1. A270 kilohms
  2. B274 ohms
  3. C72 kilohms
  4. D27 mégohms

Correct answer: A — 270 kilohms. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

The first two colours, red and violet, give the digits 2 and 7, while the third colour, yellow, acts as a multiplier meaning you add four zeros. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
