An alternating current generator has an internal resistance \(R_{g}\) and an internal reactance \(X_{g}\). It is used to supply power to a passive load consisting of a resistance \(R_{g}\) and a reactance \(X_{L}\). For maximum power to be delivered from the generator to the load, the value of \(X_{L}\) is equal to:
1. zero
2. \(X_g\)
3. \(-X_g\)
4. \(R_g\)
1. | input voltage cannot be AC voltage, but a DC voltage |
2. | maximum input voltage is \(220~\text{V}\) |
3. | the meter reads not v but \(<v^2>\) and is calibrated to read \(\sqrt{<v^2>}\) |
4. | the pointer of the meter is stuck by some mechanical defect |
