Given R1 = 4 ohms, R2 = 6 ohms, v1 = 12 volts, i1 = 2 amps, and i2 = 3 amps. Find the Thevenin equivalent voltage Vth with regards to terminals a-b.
Added by Alicia C.
Step 1
In this case, Rth is equal to the parallel combination of R1 and R2. 1/Rth = 1/R1 + 1/R2 1/Rth = 1/4 + 1/6 1/Rth = 3/12 + 2/12 1/Rth = 5/12 Rth = 12/5 = 2.4 ohms Show more…
