//Problem 13.12: Use Norton’s theorem to determine the current flowing in the 10 ohm resistance for the circuit shown in Figure 13.34(a). //initializing the variables: V = 10; // in volts R1 = 2; // in ohms R2 = 8; // in ohms R3 = 5; // in ohms R4 = 10; // in ohms //calculation: //The 10ohm resistance branch is short-circuited as shown in Figure 13.34(b). //Figure 13.34(c) is equivalent to Figure 13.34(b). Hence Isc = V/R1 //the resistance ‘looking-in’ at a break made between A and B is given by r = R1*R2/(R1 + R2) //From the Norton equivalent network shown in Figure 13.34(d) the current in the 10 ohm resistance is given by: I = (r/(r + R3 + R4))*Isc printf("\n\n Result \n\n") printf("\n the current in the 10 ohm resistance is given by %.3f A",I)
