In the circuit given below, the maximum power absorbed by the load resistance RL is ___________(a) 2200 W(b) 1250 W(c) 1000 W(d) 621 WI got this question during an interview for a job.The above asked question is from Advanced Problems on Reciprocity Theorem in portion Useful Theorems in Circuit Analysis of Network Theory

Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (d) 621 W

To EXPLAIN: RL = \(\sqrt{R_{TH}^2+X_{TH}^2}\)

= \(\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\) = 5

Now, 110 = (6 + j8 + 5) I1 + 5I2

And 90 = (6 + j8 + 5) I2 = 5I1

∴ I1 = 5.5 – 2.75j and I2 = 4.5 – 2.2j

Total current in RL = I1 + I2 = (10 – 4.95j) A = 11.15 A

∴ Power absorbed by RL = I^2R

= 11.15^2 × 5 = 621 W.
