To find Vee: Calculate the open-circuit voltage across load terminals. This open-circuit voltage is called
Thevenin’s voltage (Vi).
To find leg: Short the load terminals and then calculate the current flowing through it. This current is
called Norton current (or) short circuit current (isc).
To find Rip: Since there are Independent sources in the circuit, we can't find Rth directly. We will
calculate Rth using Voe and Isc and it is given by

Network Theory MCQ Question 6 Detailed Solution
Ohm's law: Ohm's law states that at a constant temperature, the current through a conductor between
PRR et TPE I IO YEE HoT PRP EAST PEER MOOR UM RENT TA EMVoltage = Current x Resistance
V=IKR
V = voltage, | = current and R = resistance
The SI unit of resistance is ohms and is denoted by 0.
Ithelps to calculate the power, efficiency, current, voltage, and rasistance of an element of an electrical
circult.
Limitations of ohms law:
+ Ohm’s law is not applicable to unilateral networks. Unilateral networks allow the current to flow in
one direction. Such types of networks consist of elements like a diode, transistor, etc.
+ Ohm’s law is also not applicable to non - linear elements. Non-linear elements are those which
do not have current exactly proportional to the applied voltage that means the resistance value
of those elements’ changes for different values of voltage and current. An example of a non-
linear element is thyristor.
+ Ohm's law is also not applicable to vacuum tubes.

2. the charge on each capacitor is the same
3. the voltage across each capacitor is the same
Rae ean
4, the charge on each capacitor is the same and same current flows through each capacitor in
given time
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Option 4 : the charge on each capacitor is the same and same current flows through each capacitor in
given time
Network Theory MCQ Question 10 Detailed SolutionWhen capacitors are connected in series across DC voltage:
+ The charge of each capacitor is the same and the same current flows through each capacitor in
the given time
+ The voltage across each capacitor is dependent on the capacitor value.
When capacitors are connected in parallel across DC voltage:
+ The charge of each capacitor is different and the current flows through each capacitor in the
given time are also different and depend on the value of the capacitor.
+ The voltage across each capacitor is the same.
