Let a circuit with an open-circuit voltage of 101V be given. 1V voltage is measured on a 1Ω resistor connected to the terminals of the circuit. What is short-circuit current of the circuit? Note: The formal procedure to find the Thevenin and Norton equivalents of a given circuit is to compute the open-circuit voltage (Voc) and the short-circuit current (Isc) at the terminals. Open-circuit voltage is the voltage between the open-circuited terminals and the short-circuit current is the current through the short-circuited terminals. Then the voltage of the source at the Thevenin equivalent is Voc and the current of the source at the Norton equivalent is Isc. The value of the resistance in both cases is the ratio of Voc to Isc (i.e. Rth= Voc / Isc). Another method to find Rth is killing all independent sources and computing the equivalent resistance between the terminals, provided that there is no dependent source in the circuit.
