               Solution:



               After removing the 6 Ω resistor across terminals A and B, we short circuit the
               terminals and determine I  due to the current source and also due to the
                                              sc
               voltage source and then add them to find their combined effect. Terminals A
               and B have been shown short circuited separately for each of the voltage

               sources.

















                                                          Figure 2.84

               Total           I  = 5 + 2 = 7 A
                               sc


               Equivalent resistance across A and B is determined by open circuiting the
               current source and short circuiting the voltage source.
