Efficiency of power transfer when maximum transfer of power c xerosis
Correct answer: D. 50%
- A. 100%
- B. 80%
- C. 75%
- D. 50%
Explanation
At maximum power transfer, the load resistance equals the source resistance, causing equal power dissipation in the source resistance and the load. Thus, half of the generated power reaches the load, giving 50% efficiency.
