Thevenin Theorem
Example 8
Determine the current that flows through 10 Ω using Thevenin’s theorem.
Figure 2.8(a)
Step 1
Remove the 10Ω load from the circuit and replace the current source with an open
circuit.
Figure 2.8(b)
Zth = (8 + j6) Ω // (20 – j30) Ω
= (8 + j6)(20 – j30)
(8 + j6)+ (20 – j30)
= (9.118 + j3.529) Ω
