The Attempt at a Solution
I really just want confirmation that my work is ok, and the command for a dependent current source in PSpice. The things that I found that are dependent, are very confusing looking things instead of diamonds. I have tried E and F but I don't know how to use them?

Superposition with a dependent current source is a technique used in circuit analysis where the effects of each independent source (such as voltage sources and current sources) are analyzed separately and then combined to determine the overall response of the circuit. This technique is particularly useful when dealing with circuits that have dependent sources, such as a current source that is dependent on the voltage across a resistor.
In order to apply superposition with a dependent current source in circuit analysis, the circuit is first simplified by replacing the dependent source with its equivalent circuit that only contains independent sources. Then, the effects of each independent source are calculated separately using traditional analysis techniques. Finally, the individual effects are combined to determine the overall response of the circuit.
Using superposition with a dependent current source allows for a simplified analysis of complex circuits. It also allows for a systematic approach to analyzing the effects of multiple sources in a circuit, making it easier to understand and troubleshoot circuit behavior.
Superposition with a dependent current source can only be applied to circuits that have linear components, meaning that the response of the circuit is directly proportional to the applied voltage or current. It also cannot be used to analyze the effects of nonlinear components, such as diodes or transistors.
Yes, superposition can also be applied to circuits with other types of dependent sources, such as dependent voltage sources or dependent resistors. However, the technique may become more complex and may require additional steps in the analysis process.
