(a) To determine Calculate the current i o in the given circuit by making a series of source transformation method using PSPICE. Explanation In the given circuit, the current source 2 A with parallel resistance 6 ohms is converted into voltage source with series resistance using source transformation method. That is, V 1 = ( 2 A ) ( 6 Ω ) = 12 V { ∵ 1 V = 1 A ⋅ 1 Ω } Similarly, the current source 1 A with parallel resistance 5 ohms is converted into voltage source with series resistance using source transformation method. That is, V 2 = ( 1 A ) ( 5 Ω ) = 5 V { ∵ 1 V = 1 A ⋅ 1 Ω } Figure 1 shows the modified circuit diagram. In Figure 1, the 6 ohms, 6 ohms and 5 ohms are connected in series. Therefore, the equivalent resistance for series connection is calculated as follows. 6 Ω + 6 Ω + 5 Ω = 17 Ω Figure 2 shows the reduced circuit diagram. In Figure 2, the voltage source 17 V with series resistance 17 ohms is converted into current source with parallel resistance using source transformation method. That is, I 1 = 17 V 17 Ω = 1 A { ∵ 1 A = 1 V 1 Ω } Similarly, the voltage source 34 V with series resistance 17 ohms is converted into current source with parallel resistance using source transformation method. That is, I 2 = 34 V 17 Ω = 2 A { ∵ 1 A = 1 V 1 Ω } Figure 3 shows the modified circuit diagram (b) To determine Calculate the current i o in the given circuit in PSPICE using mesh-current method.
