Chapter 2, Problem 2.98P
Another method of solving the circuit of Figure P2.24 is to start by assuming that v2=1 V. Accordingly, we work backward toward the source, using Ohm’s law KCL, and KVL to find the value of vs. Since we know that v2 is proportional to the value of vs, and since we have found the value of vs that produces v2=1 V, we can calculate the value of v2 that results when vs=12 V. Solve for v2 by using this method.

Most sources of electrical power behave as (approximately) ideal voltage sources. In this case, if we have several loads that we want to operate independently, we place the loads in parallel with a switch in series with each load. Thereupon, we can switch each load on or off without affecting the power delivered to the other loads. How would we connect the loads and switches if the source is an ideal independent current source? Draw the diagram of the current source and three loads with on–off switches such that each load can be switched on or off without affecting the power supplied to the other loads. To turn a load off, should the corresponding switch be opened or closed? Explain.
In the circuit in the figure, a potential difference V is applied as shown.Determine the value of the resistance RA such that the heat production at thatresistance is maximum. For this value, find the power dissipated by this resistor.
There is already an answer for this question but I couldn't understand the process completely. In step 2 there are some anotations that say "S C" but I don't know what that means and also the total of resistances when rewriting the whole circuit goes from 6 to 4 and it doesn't explain why
Thank you
