Thevenin Theorem
Example 4
Calculate the current that flows through (2 + j4) Ω by using Thevenin’s theorem.
Figure 2.4(a)
Step 1
Remove the impedance (2 + j4) Ω and replace current source with an open circuit.
Figure 2.4(b)
Zth = (j3 – j5) is parallel to 4 Ω
= (j3 – j5) // 4
= (– j2)(4)
(4 – j2)
= (0.8 – j1.6) Ω
