Physics · Current Electricity
Consider a circuit where a non-ideal battery drives a load resistor RL. The battery is modeled as an ideal voltage source Vs in series with an internal resistance Rs. Read the following statements regarding power transfer: Statement A: For a variable Rs and a fixed RL, the power dissipated in RL is maximum when Rs = 0. Statement B: For a fixed Rs and a variable RL, the power dissipated in RL is maximum when Rs = RL. Choose the correct option:
- 1Only statement A is correct.
- 2Only statement B is correct.
- 3Both statements A and B are correct.✓
- 4Both statements A and B are incorrect.
Correct answer
Both statements A and B are correct.
