Resistance Value:
The resistor has a resistance of 1,000 ohms (1K ohm), which means it will oppose the flow of electric current, reducing it by a certain amount as per Ohm’s Law (V = IR).

Power Rating: This resistor can dissipate up to 1/4 watt (0.25W) of power without getting damaged. This rating indicates the maximum amount of energy it can safely convert to heat.

Tolerance: The ±5% tolerance means the actual resistance value can vary by 5% above or below the specified 1K ohm. This tolerance level is sufficient for many general-purpose applications where precise resistance values are not critical.

Color Code: The resistor’s value is indicated by a series of colored bands. For a 1K ohm resistor with ±5% tolerance, the color bands are:
Brown :(first digit)(1)
Black:(second digit) (0)
Red: (x100)
Gold: (±5%)
