Pay reasonable attention to written English communication standards. This includes the use of proper grammatical structure, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. SMS messaging shorthand ("text-message-speak"), such as using "u" for "you", and "please" for "please", is not acceptable.
And what are those special cases?MrSparkle said:it shouldn't be zero except in a few special cases.
Norton's Theorem is a circuit analysis technique used to simplify a complex circuit with multiple sources and resistors into a single equivalent current source and resistor.
The main difference is that Norton's Theorem uses a current source as the equivalent source while Thevenin's Theorem uses a voltage source. Additionally, Norton's Theorem uses a parallel equivalent resistor while Thevenin's Theorem uses a series equivalent resistor.
The Norton current is equal to the open-circuit voltage divided by the equivalent resistance in the circuit. The open-circuit voltage can be found by removing the load resistor and calculating the voltage across the load terminals.
Dependent sources are sources whose values are determined by the value of another element in the circuit. In Norton's Theorem, dependent sources can be included in the equivalent current source if they are connected in parallel with the load resistor.
Norton's Theorem is only applicable to linear circuits, meaning that the current through the load must be directly proportional to the voltage across the load. It also assumes that the circuit is in steady-state and does not take into account the effects of capacitance or inductance.
