1. Problem Description

The problem asks which color code corresponds to a 3.9kΩ3.9 k\Omega resistor.

2. Solution Steps

The color code for resistors follows this scheme:
First band: 1st significant figure
Second band: 2nd significant figure
Third band: multiplier (power of ten)
Fourth band: tolerance (this is not relevant for this problem).
Based on the color code table:
0: Black
1: Brown
2: Red
3: Orange
4: Yellow
5: Green
6: Blue
7: Violet
8: Grey
9: White
For a 3.9kΩ3.9 k\Omega resistor, we can write this as 3.9×103Ω3.9 \times 10^3 \Omega.
First significant figure: 3, corresponds to Orange.
Second significant figure: 9, corresponds to White.
Multiplier: 10310^3, corresponds to Orange.
Therefore, the correct color code is Orange, White, Orange.

3. Final Answer

(c) orange, white, orange, silver
