Source is Acting in
Example 5.1-5
Find the power dissipated in the resistor R
2
in the circuit in Fig. 5.1-10 by applying
Superposition theorem.
SOLUTION
First, let us find the current through R
2
by applying Superposition Theorem. The single-
source circuit when the first voltage source is acting is shown in Fig. 5.1-11.
