**Maximum Power Transfer Theorem Problem**

---

### Problem Statement

Given the circuit below, compute the value of load \( R_L \) for maximum power transfer to the load. Also, find the current \( I_L \) going through \( R_L \) when it has maximum power transfer.

**Hint:** You need to find the Thevenin Equivalent circuit at terminals a-b (by removing \( R_L \)). Then connect the equivalent circuit with \( R_L \) to find \( I_L \) using a simple KVL.

### Steps:

1. **Find Thevenin Equivalent Circuit:**
    - Remove \( R_L \) from the terminals a-b.
    - Compute \( V_{th} \) and \( R_{th} \) for the circuit seen from terminals a-b.

2. **Compute \( R_L \) for Maximum Power Transfer:**
    - Note that \( R_L = R_{th} \) for maximum power transfer.

3. **Connect \( R_L \) and Solve Using KVL:**
    - Connect \( R_L \) to the Thevenin Equivalent circuit.
    - Use Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) to solve for the current \( I_L \).

### Circuit Analysis

![Circuit Diagram](insert-circuit-diagram-url)

The circuit consists of the following components:
- \( V_0 = 24 \text{V} \) voltage source
- \( R_1 = 6\Omega \)
- \( R_2 = 3\Omega \)
- \( R_3 = 6\Omega \)
- Load \( R_L \)

### Thevenin Equivalent Circuit:

1. **Find \( R_{th} \):**
    - To find \( R_{th} \), deactivate the source \( V_0 \).
    - Combine resistors \( R_1 \), \( R_2 \), and \( R_3 \) appropriately.

2. **Find \( V_{th} \):**
    - Calculate the open-circuit voltage across terminals a-b.

### Final Circuit with Load:
