Modeling a Black Box Circuit for Maximum Power Transfer

AI Thread Summary
To model a black box circuit for maximum power transfer, it's essential to determine the internal parameters, particularly when dealing with a 4-ohm resistor. The varying voltage complicates finding the current, but using external data points can help establish a circuit model. By applying relevant equations and simultaneous equations, one can solve for the necessary parameters. A suggested approach is to replace the black box's internals with a known circuit configuration to simplify analysis. This method provides a structured way to tackle the problem effectively.

Homework Statement


The question is showed as below.

Homework Equations


I don't know how to find i when the resistor is 4 ohm.
I think it is quite difficult as the voltage is varying all the time.
So how do I find the current?
Thanks!

Relevant equations are those equations you feel are relevant to the type of problem, not a continuation of the problem statement.

What sort of circuit might you replace the internals of the black box with in order to give you something to work with? You have several external data points you can use to determine the parameters of that circuit model (think: simultaneous equations, solve for required parameters).

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
