Using Superposition to Solve a Circuit with 6 Ohms Resistance
Understanding Superposition:
- Superposition is a technique used to analyze linear circuits with multiple sources by considering the effects of each source separately and then combining the results.
- It involves turning off all but one independent source at a time and calculating the response of the circuit to that particular source.

Solving a Circuit with 6 Ohms Resistance:
1. Turn off all but one independent source:
- In our case, we will turn off all sources except one independent source, say a voltage source.
- Analyze the circuit with only the voltage source active and calculate the current flowing through the 6 Ohm resistor.
2. Repeat for each independent source:
- Turn off the previous voltage source and turn on a current source.
- Analyze the circuit with only the current source active and calculate the current flowing through the 6 Ohm resistor.
3. Combine the results:
- Add the currents calculated in step 1 and step 2 to obtain the total current flowing through the 6 Ohm resistor.
- This total current will be the superposition of the individual currents due to each independent source.
By following these steps, you can use superposition to analyze and solve a circuit with a 6 Ohm resistance. This method simplifies the analysis of complex circuits with multiple sources and helps in obtaining accurate results.
