Transcribed Image Text:### Exercise: Using Superposition to Find \( v_x(t) \)
#### Problem Statement:
Use superposition to find \( v_x(t) \) in the circuit below.
#### Circuit Description:
The circuit consists of the following components:
- A 25 V voltage source.
- A 20 Ω resistor.
- A 5 A current source.
- A 4 Ω resistor.
- A dependent current source described as \( 0.1i_x \).
The configuration of these components can be described as:
1. The 25 V voltage source is connected in series with a 20 Ω resistor.
2. The node at the end of the 20 Ω resistor branches out into two parallel paths:
- The first parallel path contains a 5 A current source.
- The second parallel path contains a 4 Ω resistor connected in series with a dependent current source represented as \( 0.1i_x \).
3. The bottom of the dependent current source is connected to the ground, closing the circuit.
#### Diagram Explanation:
In the given circuit diagram:
- The voltage source (+25 V) is located on the left side.
- The 20 Ω resistor is situated horizontally and connected to the right of the 25 V voltage source.
- After the 20 Ω resistor, the circuit splits into two branches.
- The top branch contains the 5 A current source.
- The bottom branch contains a 4 Ω resistor and then the dependent current source (\( 0.1i_x \)).
- The dependent current source's negative end is connected to the ground.
### Steps for Superposition Analysis:
Superposition involves analyzing the circuit by considering one independent source at a time while turning off all other independent sources. When "turning off" a voltage source, you replace it with a short circuit (0 V). When "turning off" a current source, you replace it with an open circuit (0 A).
1. **Analyze with the 25 V Voltage Source Active:**
- Replace the 5 A current source with an open circuit.
- Determine \( v_x(t) \) using the remaining active source.
2. **Analyze with the 5 A Current Source Active:**
- Replace the 25 V voltage source with a short circuit.
- Calculate \( v_x(t) \) under these conditions.
3. **Combine the Results:**
- Sum the individual contributions of \( v_x(t) \)
