Problem

A series-parallel combination battery consisting of a large number N = 300 of identical cells, each with an internal resistance 132 r = 0.3 52, is loaded with an external resistance R = 10 Q. Find the number n of parallel groups consisting of an equal number of cells connected in series, at which the external resistance generates the highest thermal power.
