2. Overview Dependent Sources Resistors in Series Resistors in Parallel Voltage Divider Current Divider Voltage / Current Division Δ-to-Y Equivalent Circuits 2

3. Finding v o 3 Strategy: If we find i o, we know v o If we find i Δ, we know the dependent source The current in 500V source is i Δ Use KCL and KVL to do find unknown currents

4. Finding v o 4 KVL: KCL: only 1 loop option Ohm’s Law: can only use node b or c
