    How do dependent sources change the analysis of a circuit?

    Homework Statement Homework Equations v = IR The Attempt at a Solution Okay, so up until this point, I was doing okay... but now I'm stuck. I do not understand how I'm supposed to work with this because until now I have not had a dependent source. Am I supposed to start by doing a KCL on...

    A circuit of four elements. Which are in series and which are in parallel?

    I basically have this diagram: http://www.tinyimg.org/images/595physic144.png The problem asks "which of the elements are in series and which of the elements are in parallel?" I WANT to say that they are ALL in parallel with each other and none are in series, but I've never seen anything...
