Question
A battery of fixed emf E and internal resistance r is connected to a variable external resistor R. what would be the relation between R and r when maximum power is delivered.
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
According to the maximum power transfer theorem, maximum power is delivered from a source to a load when the load resistance (external resistor R) is equal to the internal resistance (r) of the source.
Hint
Remember the Maximum Power Transfer Theorem for DC circuits.
