🔍 Key Concepts

• Maximum power transfer theorem from basic electrical theory • Relationship between source (internal) impedance and load impedance • Effect of impedance matching vs. mismatch on power delivered to the load

💭 Think About

• If the internal resistance of the source is fixed, how does changing the load impedance affect the voltage across the load and the current through the circuit? • At what relationship between source and load impedance is the product of voltage across the load and current through the load (i.e., power) at its greatest? • How does too high or too low a load impedance, compared to the source impedance, change the power actually absorbed by the load?

✅ Before You Answer

• Review the statement of the maximum power transfer theorem from your basic DC/AC circuit theory notes. • Compare what happens to load power when the load impedance is much larger than, much smaller than, and equal to the source impedance. • Be sure you distinguish between maximum power transfer and maximum efficiency—they do not occur at the same impedance relationship.

Question 1 of 20

Assuming a power source to have a fixed value of internal resistance, maximum power will be transferred to the load when:

The load impedance is greater than the source impedance.

The load impedance equals the internal impedance of the source.

The load impedance is less than the source impedance.

The fixed values of internal impedance are not relative to the power source.
