Thevenin Theorem
Step 4
Calculate the current flowing through 12Ω resistor.
(8.11 + j11.35 )
i12Ω = = (0.155 + j0.747) Amps
(4.73 − j7.378) + (12)
The current flowing through the 12Ω resistor = (0.155 + j0.747) Amps
Example 7
Determine the current that flows through (5 + j10) Ω using Thevenin’s theorem.
Figure 2.7(a)
Step 1
Remove the impedance (5 + j10) Ω from the circuit and replace the voltage source with
a short circuit. Hence, calculate the value of Zth.
