Hello, I am dario and have a problem that deals with electrical circuits
I have a practice problem for Nortons and Thevenins equivalents, and don't really know how to approach it. I'm confused when it comes to choosing a load, and reducing it into the final simple circuit.
The problem is i the attached picture provided, it is a drawing of a circuit.
V = IR
Current divider: IRx = ( Rtotal / Rx ) Itotal
Voltage Divider: VRx = (Rx / Rtotal ) * Vtotal
Thevenins Resistance = Nortons Resistance
Nortons Current = Thevenins Voltage / Thevenins or Nortons Resistance
I do not have any progress really because I do not really know how to approach this circuit. Would i neglect the output on the right because no current will flow there and remove the load R1 to determine the circuit? I don't see how else the circuit could be reduced to a Nortons circuit.
