What type of fixed resistor is made by applying a film of carbon to a ceramic rod?

A) carbon film
B) metal film
C) metal glaze
D) wire-wound

Carbon Film

A type of resistor made by depositing a thin layer of carbon on an insulating substrate, known for stability and low noise.

Ceramic Rod

A type of non-metallic rod made from ceramic materials, often used for applications requiring high temperature resistance or electrical insulation.

Carbon

A chemical element, with symbol C, that is the basis of all known life on earth, capable of forming multiple stable covalent bonds.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Carbon film resistors are made by applying a film of carbon to a ceramic rod, which acts as the substrate. This process creates a resistor with a specific resistance value.
