Question
**Objective: Find the Norton Equivalent** **Circuit Description:** - **Voltage Source:** - A 16V voltage source is positioned to the left, connected in a loop. - **Resistors:** - **4Ω Resistor:** Situated immediately after the voltage source, in series. - **4Ω Resistor:** Positioned on the right branch, in series with the dependent current source. - **2Ω Resistor:** Connected vertically in a branch below the dependent source, carrying a current denoted as \( i_x \). - **Dependent Current Source:** - The current source is depicted as \( 4i_x \), where it is dependent on the current through the 2Ω resistor (\( i_x \)). **Connection Points:** - The nodes labeled \( a \) and \( b \) serve as terminals for the Norton equivalent circuit output. **Analysis Goals:** - To determine the Norton equivalent of the given circuit between terminals \( a \) and \( b \), which involves calculating the Norton current (\( I_N \)) and Norton resistance (\( R_N \)).
