Question

A resistor of 6kΩ with tolerance 10% and another resistance of 4kΩ with tolerance 10% are connected in series. The tolerance of the combination is about?

• A. 5%
• B. 10%
• C. 12%
• D. 15%

Hint:

The tolerance of series resistors is the sum of their individual tolerances.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

When resistors are connected in series, the tolerances add. The total tolerance is the sum of the individual tolerances, which can be calculated for the given resistors.
