Find the Norton Equivalent with respect to the 20uF capacitor.

Find the Thévenin equivalent with respect to the capacitor in the circuit shown. Then replace the capacitor with a resistor chosen for maximum power transfer. What is the value of the resistor? What is the power absorbed by this resistor?

Solution

circuit diagram

Find the Thévenin equivalent circuit with respect to the capacitor.

Solution

Find the Thévenin equivalent circuit with respect to the capacitor. You must use superposition to find Vth.

Solution

Find the Norton Equivalent with respect to the 3 Kohm resistor in the middle of the circuit, i.e., the 3 Kohm resistor itself should not be part of the equivalent that you compute.

Solution

Find the Thévenin equivalent with respect to the 1nF capacitor. You must use super-position to find Vth, the Thévenin voltage.
