Question

1. the resistance of a shorted inductor equals _________.

0 ohms
infinite ohms
the color code value
the printed value ±10%

Explanation:

A shorted component has a very low resistance path. An inductor when shorted offers almost no resistance. 0 ohms represents a perfect short (in ideal cases). Infinite ohms would be an open - circuit. The color code value and printed value ±10% are related to the inductance value (not resistance for a shorted case).

Answer:

A. 0 ohms
