Source transformation Definition and 25 Threads

I tried setting up 4 equations using Kirchoffs laws, but the current source is throwing me off, as i dont know wether to include it in the loop, and if it would be smart to transform it into a voltage source. The equations i have so far are: I1 + I2 + I3 = I(R3) I(R3) = I1 + I4 I4 = I2 + I3 U1 =...

My work seems to be wrong somehow since my answer is wrong, and I need your help to find out which part is going wrong for me :/ My work: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. (10/7)/(10/7+7) = 0.7627A, which is not the answer. May I consult where is the problem in solution? THanks

Homework Statement I'm asking this question because I was trying to apply the method to a Thevenin Eq problem and the answer came out wrong. Also one more related question. According to the textbook, when a current source is connected both in series with a resistor and in parallel with...

I'm extreeeeamly rusty at basic circuit theory. I want to transform a sort of infinite arrangement of this circuit: The values themselves aren't important, just the representation of what's happening, all the verticle resistors are the same value as each other, and all the horizontal resistors...

Hi.i know that a ideal current source has infinite resistance and it supply's constant current to aload connected across it. The current source doesn't have the infinite resistance in series to it but in pparalle. All is well until I think of this Norton's Therom. When we transform a voltage...

Hey guys, i did this source transformation as an alternate method to find the transfer function of a circuit, however I am getting a different transfer function of 2/(2s+(s+3)(s^2+1)) to the solution in the following image. Any help would be really appreciated :)

It's question 1b) Please view attached 1. Just to clarify, when different voltage sources are in series you pick the smaller one? 2. First step, they turned the 1A and 2ohm into 2V, why does the resistance disappear? Then between the last two steps the 12/7 ohm resistance remains with 18/7...

Homework Statement I'm to use source transformation to find the current through the 24 Ohm resistor 2. The attempt at a solution I used source transformation on the left 12V source and got a .5A current upwards. The 24 and 30 ohm resistor are in parallel so I found an equivalent resistance of...
