    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    It gets: ##2(i1-i2)-5=0## ##2(i2-i3)+2(i2-i1)+i2-i4=0## ##2(i3-i2)+i3+10=0## ##2i4+Vx+i4-i2=0## ##i1=0## ##i2=-2,5## ##i3=-5## ##i4=-2,5## ##Vx=5v##

    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    Ok, the current source is not in parallel, but in series with the 1ohm resistor, and to check if there is 10v between the current source, it should be on KVL i4 equation. I think i did similar before, as you mentioned for the first loop, but i'll explain how i got there: One equation for each...

    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    So... as the 5A current source is in parallel with the 2ohm resistor, now i can see that it could be transformed in 10v voltage source in series with this resistor. I tried again with KVL and found this: ##-5+2(i1-i3)=0## ##2(i3-i4)+2(i3-i1)+i3-i2=0## ##2i2+Vx+i2-i3=0## ##2(i4-i3)+i4=0##...

    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    Really helped... Thank's! ##5+(VB-VA)/1=VA/2+(VA-VB)/2## ##5/2+(VA-VB)/2=VB/2+(VB-VA)/2## ##VA=7,5V## ##VB=20/3V## By the loops: ##(VA-VB)/2=-i4## ##VB-VA=i2-i4## and relating Vx with i2 and i4: ##Vx=-2,49V## and ##0,83A## through it. So, i4 was on wrong direction, which changed the...

    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    Yes, it's correct. The Vx in the circuit is a voltage source.

    Determine the value of the voltage source Vx

    Homework Statement Find Vx, as the 5A current source provides 50W to the circuit. Homework Equations ##P = V.I## ##U = R.I## The Attempt at a Solution [/B] At first, as 5A current source provides 50W, by ##p=vi## there should be 10v through it. Then, i applied KVL and found four equations...

    Thevenin equivalent by source transformation

    Ok, now i see that it's not as general as i was thinking. Thank's! @ehild @gneill

    Thevenin equivalent by source transformation

    Sorry, i didn't get how to do this. I mean, what i previously understood from source transformation with thevenin theorem is that if i could transform a circuit just in a tension source in series with a resistor, than it would be the Vth and the Rth. Isn't it? This kind of resolution worked in...
