Question

Once the circuit is transformed to a voltage source where will the resistance be connected?

(a) In series with the voltage source

(b) In parallel with the voltage source

(c) The resistance is removed from the circuit

(d) Resistance is multiplied by 10 and connected in series with the source

This question was posed to me in an interview for internship.

This interesting question is from Source  Transformations in portion Network Theorems of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer 1

Right answer is (a) In series with the voltage source

To elaborate: The resistance is connected in series with the voltage source because we are transforming a current source connected in parallel to a resistor to a voltage source connected in series with it.
