Question 8 1 pts Three values of Ru for the color-coded resistor shown below are 264ohms, 247 ohms, and 278 ohms. (a) What is the absolute percent error in the average value of these three measurements compared to the color-coded value? Take the color-coded value as the known value. (b) Is the percent error smaller, larger or the same as the precision of the resistor? The colors are, respectively, Red Blue Brown and Silver (precision). Please refer to Table 29.1 in Question # 2 (a) 10.1% (b) percent error is larger than the precision (a) 2.545% (b) percent error is smaller than the precision (a) 1.15% (b) percent error is smaller than the precision (a) 11.5% (b) percent error is larger than the precision

Explanation / Answer

Using colour code

Actual value of resistance=((2*10)+6)*10=260 ohm

Average value =(264+247+278)/3=263 ohm

Error=100*(263-260)/260=1.15 %

So it is less than precision

So option (c) is correct
