The power is generated by a DC power facility at a voltage of 10 V and deliver by two power lines with resistance Rline=3 ohm. The maximum power the voltage source can deliver is 5 W.

a) Find the total power delivered by this DC voltage source
I used P=IV, where I =V/R when you plug it in the power equation P=V^2/R=(10V)^2/(6 ohm)= approx 17W

b)Find the power lost due to resistance heating in the wires
Requiv=6 ohm, then P=I^2R=(1.66A)^2x(6ohm)=approx 17 W

Are these two supposed to be equal? the power delivered and the power dissipated due to the resistance?
