Engineering Electrical engineering hw/Resistive Circuits

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a user struggling with two resistive circuit problems from their electrical engineering homework, particularly focusing on the first problem. They express confusion regarding whether the source is a voltage or current, suspecting it to be a current source. Suggestions include summing currents at the input node and solving the problem in the time domain before transforming to the s-domain for easier manipulation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding both time and frequency domain analysis in solving circuit problems. Overall, the user seeks clarity and guidance on the first problem while feeling more confident about the second.

Homework Statement



Im having trouble figuring out these two problems from my home work I've been working on them for 3 hours can anyone give me some insight?

Homework Equations



If the second problem is unclear, F(s) is (3s+4) divided by s(s+2).

Attached is the home work

Please help this problem is extremely frustrating
 
Is the source a voltage or current? I suspect current ...
 
source voltage is current, I can figure out the second problem by myself its just the first one is tricky and I am a bit rusty.
 
Sum currents at the input node. What do you get? Do it in the time domain first if you're not comfortable with transformed impedances.

Then transform each term and solve for V(s), then inverse-transform for v(t). The i(t) and I(s) are obvious ...
