[amp_mcq option1=”Ideal voltage source and parallel resistor” option2=”Ideal current source and parallel resistor” option3=”Ideal voltage source and series resistor” option4=”Ideal current source and series resistor E. None of the above” correct=”option3″]
The correct answer is: C. Ideal voltage source and series resistor.
Thevenin’s theorem states that any linear circuit can be replaced with a single voltage source and series resistor in parallel with the load. The voltage source is equal to the open-circuit voltage of the original circuit, and the series resistor is equal to the impedance of the original circuit looking back from the load terminals.
Option A is incorrect because it states that Thevenin’s theorem replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal current source and parallel resistor. However, Thevenin’s theorem actually replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal voltage source and series resistor.
Option B is incorrect because it states that Thevenin’s theorem replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal current source and series resistor. However, Thevenin’s theorem actually replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal voltage source and series resistor.
Option D is incorrect because it states that Thevenin’s theorem replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal current source and series resistor. However, Thevenin’s theorem actually replaces a complicated circuit facing a load by an ideal voltage source and series resistor.
Option E is incorrect because it states that none of the above is the correct answer. However, the correct answer is C. Ideal voltage source and series resistor.
