\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

Parallel equivalent resistance : \"\".

\

Step 3:

\

Redraw the circuit replacing  resistors \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Now apply source transformation to convert source to voltage source.

\

Voltage across the resistor \"\" is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Redraw the circuit using source transformation.

\

\"\"

\

Voltage across the parallel network is same, hence \"\".

\

Since \"\", the voltage across the terminal A and B is \"\".

\

Solution :

\

Voltage across the terminal A and B is \"\".

\"\"

\

Now apply source transformation to convert source to voltage source.

\

Voltage across the resistor \"\" is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Redraw the circuit using source transformation.

\

\"\"

\

All the resistors are connectted in series.

\

Hence equivalent resistance is \"\".

\

Step 4:

\

The total resistance of the circuit is \"\".

\

Find the current flowing in the circuit.

\

Current flowing in the circuit is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Current flowing in the circuit is \"\".

\

Find the voltage across the A and B.

\

Voltage across A and B is the voltage drop across the \"\" resistor.

\

Voltage drop across the \"\" resistor : \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Since \"\", the voltage across the terminal A and B is \"\" V.

\

Solution :

\

Voltage across the terminal A and B is \"\" V.
