Question

Part A) Find the value of the variable resistor Ro in the circuit that will result in maximum power dissipation in the 6 ? resistor (Figure 1) if v = 42V . (Hint: Hasty conclusions could be hazardous to your career.)

Part B) What is the maximum power that can be delivered to the 6? resistor

Explanation / Answer

if Ro=0 ohm then no power loss and all power will be transfered to the load.

so Ro=0 ohm for maximum power condition.dont apply maximum power transfer theorom here.because load is constant here.

maximum power=V^2/R=42^2/6=294 watts
