City Guilds Model Questions Vol1 2017 Engineering Question 30
Practice objective / multiple choice question 30 from the 2017 City Guilds Model Questions Vol1 Engineering examination.
In the circuit shown, a \(12\ \text{V}\) source is in series with a resistor \(R_{1}=4\ \Omega\). From the node after \(R_{1}\) two branches are connected: one contains a resistor \(R_{2}=6\ \Omega\) to ground, the other contains a resistor \(R_{3}=2\ \Omega\) in series with a load resistor \(R_{L}\) to ground. Find the value of \(R_{L}\) (in ohms, to two decimal places) that will maximise the power dissipated in \(R_{L}\).
