The Maximum Power Principle, often referenced in various fields such as thermodynamics, electrical engineering, and control theory, generally states that systems tend to achieve maximum energy transfer or output under optimal conditions. 1. **In Electrical Engineering**: The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem states that maximum power is delivered to a load when the load resistance (R_L) is equal to the source resistance (R_S) in a circuit.
