  1. Norton's equivalent circuit consists of:

    Answer: Current source in parallel with resistance

    Norton equivalent: short-circuit current source (IN) in parallel with Norton resistance (RN).

  2. Superposition theorem applies to circuits that are:

    Answer: Linear (containing only linear elements)

    Superposition only works for linear circuits — the response is the sum of individual source responses.

  3. The power factor of a purely resistive circuit is:

    Answer: 1

    In a purely resistive circuit, voltage and current are in phase, so power factor = cos(0°) = 1.

  4. A step-up transformer:

    Answer: Increases voltage and decreases current

    A step-up transformer increases voltage while proportionally decreasing current.

  5. The maximum power transfer theorem states maximum power is delivered when:

    Answer: Load resistance equals source resistance

    Maximum power transfer occurs when RL = RS (load matches source impedance).

  6. In AC circuits, impedance is measured in:

    Answer: Ohms

    Impedance (Z), like resistance, is measured in Ohms (Ω).
