### Electrical Engineering Analysis

#### Problem Statement 1 (Q1):
Determine voltage \( V_{ab} \) in Figure 1 using the **superposition method**. Once superposition is applied, you may use any method to solve for the desired voltage. **Show all work clearly for credit.** Box the final answer.

#### Superposition Method
Superposition involves analyzing a linear circuit that contains multiple independent sources (voltage or current sources) by considering one independent source at a time while turning off the others (replacing voltage sources with short circuits and current sources with open circuits). The total response in any element is the sum of the responses due to each independent source acting alone.

**Circuit Configuration (Figure 1):**
- The circuit consists of a 12 V voltage source in series with a 3 Ω resistor.
- A 3 A current source in parallel with a 3 Ω resistor.
- A central 6 Ω resistor is in parallel to both the voltage and current sources.
- Points \(a\) and \(b\) are defined where the voltage \( V_{ab} \) is to be determined.

#### Problem Statement 2 (Q2):
Determine voltage \( V_{ab} \) in Figure 1 using **source transformation method only** by reducing it to a voltage source in series with a resistor. **Show all work clearly for credit.** Box the final answer.

#### Source Transformation Method
The source transformation technique involves converting a voltage source in series with a resistor into a current source in parallel with a resistor, or vice versa. This method simplifies the analysis of complex circuits.

---
### Instructions
1. **Carefully analyze the circuit in Figure 1.**
2. **Use appropriate formulas and proper steps to solve each question.**
3. **Clearly show all the steps taken to reach the solution.**
4. **Provide a neatly boxed final answer for each problem.**

---

### Extra Notes
- For Q1, remember to turn off all sources except one and solve the circuit
