Solutions to Problem Sheet 3 (Topics 7 - 8)
Note: In many of the solutions below I have written the voltage at node X as the variable X instead of VX in
order to save writing so many subscripts.

1. (a) The Thévenin equivalent voltage equals the open circuit voltage is 4 V (from potential divider). To
obtain the Thévenin resistance, we set the voltage source to 0 (making it a short circuit) and find
the resistance of the network to be 1||4 = 0.8Ω.

(b) The open-circuit voltage is -8V (since the 2 A current flows anticlockwise). To obtain the
Thévenin resistance, we set the current source to zero (zero current implies an open circuit), so the
resultant network has a resistance of 4 Ω.
