Tutorial Example
A practical current source consists of a 3A ideal current source which has an internal resistance of 500 Ohms. With no-load attached, calculate the current sources open-circuit terminal voltage and the no-load power absorbed by the internal resistor.
No-load values:
Then the open circuit voltage across the internal source resistance and terminals A and B (VAB) is calculated at 1500 volts.
Part 2: If a 250 Ohm load resistor is connected to the terminals of the same practical current source, calculate the current through each resistance, the power absorbed by each resistance and the voltage drop across the load resistor. Draw the circuit.
