Convert the current source and parallel resistor shown (I=5 A, R=8, ) into an equivalent voltage source in series with a resistor. Find the voltage of the equivalent source.
- 0.62 V
- 13 V
- 20 V
- 40 V
Answer
D. 40 V
Solution
A source transformation gives V=IR=(5 A)(8, )=40 V, with the same resistance 8, in series.
