Maximum power transfer does not imply maximum efficiency. If the load resistance is smaller than source resistance, the power dissipated at the load is reduced while most of the power is dissipated at the source then the efficiency becomes lower
So B is correct ans
In electrical engineering, the maximum power transfer theorem states that, to obtain maximum external power from a source with a finite internal resistance, the resistance of the load must equal the resistance of the source as viewed from its output terminals.
A is correct!
