Homework Statement
Find the norton equivalent with respect to terminals a and b
[PLAIN]http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/7177/nortonequivalent.jpg
Homework Equations
KVL, KCL
The Attempt at a Solution
I set i1 = .008 A
Then I found the rest of the currents.
KVL@ loop i2:
2000(i2-i1)+30=0
i2 = .0065 A
KVL@ loop i3:
-30+15000i3=0
i3=.002 A
KCL@ node D
i3-i4-.010=0
(.002)-i4-.010=0
i4= -.008 A
KVL@ loop iab:
30000(iab-i4)=0
iab= -.008A
I got the same current for i4 and iab, unless I did my math wrong.
Can someone check my equations and set up to make sure I'm even finding the right current for the norton equivalent circuit?
EDIT. I redid i4 by doing (i4-i3)=.010 A
I got i4 = .012 A so I'm not sure which current to o use.
