In a circuit, Thevenin theorem replaces any linear network with:

Answer: One voltage source with series resistance.

  • A One voltage source with series resistance
  • B One current source with parallel resistance
  • C Two sources in series
  • D Maximum power source

Correct answer: A. One voltage source with series resistance

Explanation: Thevenin theorem: any linear circuit with sources and resistors can be replaced by a single EMF source (V<sub>th</sub>) in series with resistance (R<sub>th</sub>).

In series, the same current flows through both resistors; in parallel, the current splits between branches and the voltage across each resistor is the same.

Concept context

Ohm's law, resistors, Kirchhoff's laws, Wheatstone bridge, and cells.
