Problems: Circuit Components, Methods of Circuit Analysis, and Circuit Theorems

Abstract

This chapter helps both groups of underprepared and knowledgeable undergraduate students taking courses in electrical circuit analysis. In this chapter, the basic and advanced problems of three important subjects of electrical circuit analysis, that is, circuit components, methods of circuit analysis, and circuit theorems, are presented. The problems of methods of circuit analysis are concerned with mesh analysis, nodal analysis, and heuristic techniques. Moreover, the problems of circuit theorems are related to source transformation theorem, superposition theorem, Thevenin theorem, Norton theorem, and maximum power transform theorem. Like the other chapters of this textbook, the problems are categorized in different levels based on their difficulty levels (easy, normal, or hard) and calculation amounts (small, normal, or large). Additionally, the problems are ordered from the easiest problem with the smallest calculations to the most difficult problems with the largest calculations.
