A decade resistance box is piece of laboratory equipment that allows the user to dial in a precise amount of electrical resistance to be inserted into a circuit. For example, it might have a dial for 100s of Ohms, 10s of Ohms, and 1s of Ohms, and allow the user to set any value from 999 Ohms to 0 Ohms in 1 ohm steps. While the use of this device has probably been largely superseded in laboratory use by more sophisticated equipment, it was used in the past in some or all of the following applications: Measurement of unknown resistances by the "bridge" method, Setting the current in a test circuit, Calibrating other lab equipment such as an Ohmmeter or Ammeter, Demonstrating Ohm's Law, and so on.

Why fractional resistance box is used in Carey foster experiment?
even a six year old knows this so i am going to leave you on suspence:)
What are most applications that use the internet called?
Client/server applications
When was Scientific Computer Applications created?
Scientific Computer Applications was created in 1969.

What is a resistance decade box?
Resistance decade box is nothing but Resistance bank. It has various ranges of Resistance value ranging from few ohms to few mega ohms. In other terms, large value of resistance are fabricated in single box is said to be Resistance decade box.
How do you use resistance decade box?
we use it when we require a variable resistance in a circuit
What is the use of resistance box?
The use of a resistance box or a "Decade Box" is to help calibrate instruments used to measure electrical values such as Voltage, Current, and Resistance. Without them you would not have a known value of resistance to use as a set point.
What is a resistor decade box?
A box of precision resistors where you can dial in the exact resistance you want with dials. Essentially a variable resistor with very precise, discrete, settings.
What is decade capacitance box?
same as decade resitance box but instead of reitances there wil be capacitances
What are the applications of resistance?
Air hockey, Badminton
What is high resistance box?
a box which has resistance between 1 ohm to 50000 ohm
What is decade resistance box?
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 .01% of the desired resistance. I've used them to balance a wheatstone bridge that had a tiny mV offset.
What is the applications of kelvins double bridge?
to measure unknown resistance
Applications of source follower with bootstrapped gate resistance?
reduce distortion,
Is resistance box connected in series or parallel?
It depends on what you want to accomplish. If you want to decrease the resistance in a circuit, you would place the box in parallel to some other resistor. If you want to increase the resistance in a circuit, you would place the box in series.
