resistor value ...
see the attached diagram
What value of resistor in the place of the 33 ohm resistor would draw maximum power from the rest of the circuit and what power would it draw?
I can figure out the currents flowing in different branches of the circuit using maxwell mesh network analysis. But I did not have a clue of how to solve the problem. I know what power dissipation is and how to work it out, but the given question is giving me headaches.
