In the circuit shown, a 24 V ideal source is in series with a 4 Ω resistor. From the node after this resistor a 6 Ω resistor is connected to ground, and the load resistor \(R_{L}\) is placed in parallel with the 6 Ω resistor. Determine the value of \(R_{L}\) that will receive maximum power and compute that maximum power (in watts).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. R_{L}=10 Ω; maximum power ≈ 5.18 W.
B. R_{L}=12 Ω; maximum power ≈ 5.00 W.
C. R_{L}=8 Ω; maximum power ≈ 4.80 W.
D. R_{L}=15 Ω; maximum power ≈ 4.50 W.
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
R_{L}=10 Ω; maximum power ≈ 5.18 W.
