Network Elements and the Concept of Circuit

  1. Use the data of figure (a). The current i in the circuit of figure (b)—
    1. – 2A
    2. 2A
    3. – 4A
    4. 4A
Correct Option: D

This is a reciprocal and linear network. According to reciprocity theorem which states ‘‘Two loops A and B of a network N and if an ideal voltage source E in the loop A produces a current I in loop B, then interchanging positions an identical source in loop B produces the same current in loop A’’. Since network is linear, principle of homogeneity holds and so when voltage source is doubled current will also doubles.
