A Norton equivalent circuit for an ac source consists of
- a current source in series with an impedance
- a voltage source in parallel with an impedance
- a voltage source in series with a resistor only
- a current source in parallel with an impedance
Answer
D. a current source in parallel with an impedance
Solution
Norton's theorem replaces a linear two-terminal network with a current source IN in parallel with the Thevenin impedance ZN=ZTh.
