If power in $\mathrm{R}$ is maximum then

$\boxed{R = r\,}\,i = \frac{E}{{2R}} = \frac{E}{{2r}}$

Power in $\mathrm{R}$

$P=\left(\frac{E}{2 R}\right)^{2} \cdot R=\frac{E^{2}}{4 R}$

input power.

$P_{\text {in }}=\left(\frac{E}{2 R}\right)^{2} \cdot 2 R=\frac{E^{2}}{2 R}$

Efficiency $=\frac{P_{\text {out }}}{P_{\text {in }}} \times 100=50 \%$

    A potential $V_0$ is applied across a uniform wire of resistance $R$. The power dissipation is $P_1$. The wire is then cut into two equal halves and a potential of $V _0$ is applied across the length of each half. The total power dissipation across two wires is $P_2$. The ratio $P_2: P_1$ is $\sqrt{x}: 1$. The value of $x$ is $.............$.
