Decade resistor box?

Answer:

A variable range of resistors built inside a box that can be varied as per our convenient. For example a set of kilo ohm resistors will be there,if u want 3 kilo ohm resistor then using the knob u can change the resistor value to your desired value. similarly there will be another set of resistors in mega ohm etc

What is a decade resistor box used for?
It is used to dial in a specific resistance within the range of the box. It can be used wherever you need a resistor of an unknown value or a precise value. Most decade boxes provide reistance with...
Why is a decade resistance box is call a resistance decade box?
because the resistors used in it are the multiple of 10. the second resistor used must be 10 times of the first one. this continues. that's y it is called resistance decade box
What is decade resistance box?
A: This is a term defining a resistor box containing potentiometers-like resistors (adjustable resistors) with specific steps per dial. For example, you may could have three 11 position dials, with...
