Q: What is the total current ( IT ) and voltage ( V3 ) across resistor R3? A: In order to begin evaluating the circuit from the vantage point of Vs1, we place a short across Vs2 : Within this circuit, negatively charged electrons move upward and across the R3 resistor towards the positively chargedContinue reading “INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: The Superposition Theorem“

Q: How much current flows across R2? What is the voltage drop across R2? A: We begin by evaluating the circuit from two points of view: Vs1 and Vs2. In order to begin our journey, the Vs2 voltage source is shorted: From the vantage point of Vs1, resistor R1 is in series with resistors R2Continue reading “INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: The Superposition Theorem“
INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: The Superposition Theorem
Most of the circuits we’ve encountered thus far contain a single voltage ( V ) source that provides current ( I ) to the system. Suppose, however, that a current determination must be made for the following dual-voltage circuit type: The presence of two voltage sources eliminates any series-parallel relationships that would exist between theContinue reading “INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: The Superposition Theorem“
