Yes, if you are talking about the normal carbon composition types having colour codes. But there are some non-linear types too.

Is a Resistor a nonlinear device?
It is a linear device if it is not a wire wound resistor. These become non linear to AC at high frequencies because of their inherent inductance.
Why a transistor is a non linear devices?
A: THE WORD IS LINEAR. yes it is not a very linear device as a function of current
What device could not provide the energy for current to flow in a circuit?
a resistor
Is diode an active device?
A passive device is a diode resistor coil and so forth it perform no enhancement to the circuit or act on it.
What is unidirectional device?
A device which operates(or function) only in one direction is called unidirectional (or unipolar) device
Is a Resistor a nonlinear device?
It is a linear device if it is not a wire wound resistor. These become non linear to AC at high frequencies because of their inherent inductance.
What are the two main categories of resistor?
linear and non-linear resistor
Is resistance a linear device?
YES it is linear. It is a passive device classified as linear however as frequency increases its behavior will change.
What device opposes current?
A resistor
What is a device that control currents?
RESISTOR
What is the Device in a circuit to make it harder for electricity to flow?
the device is a resistor
What is s device that interferes with the flow of an electrical charge?
You cannot 'slow' the flow of current in a wire. What you can do, however, is to reduce its value, or to limit its upper value. The device that will do this is a resistor. If, by your question, you are asking how to reduce the rate of change in its magnitude, then you can use an inductor.
What is the device that resists the flow of electrical current?
resistor
What is a device that resists the flow of electricity in a circuit?
A resistor.
Is there any device which can emit smell when heated?
a resistor
Kinds of resistors?
1.)Linear Resistor 2.)Non Linear Resistor a.)Fixed Value Resistor b.)Variable Resistor c.)Package Resistor Taking into account compositon: 1.) Carbon piece 2.) Carbon Deposition 3.) High Volatge Ink Film 4.) Metal Film 5.) Metal Glaze 6.) Wire Wound 7.) Ceramic Metal
The correct formula to determine how many Amps of current a device will draw is?
There is no formula it depends on the device. If the device is linear it can be ascertain but if it a non linear then it becomes quite complex
