Question

A linear two-terminal circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source in series with a resistor. This statement refers to the

A.

Thevenin’s theorem

B.

Superposition theorem

C.

Norton’s theorem

D.

Reciprocity theorem

Correct option is A


Thevenin's theorem states that any linear, two-terminal electrical network can be simplified to an equivalent circuit consisting of a single voltage source in series with a resistor. This equivalent circuit makes it easier to analyze complex networks by reducing them to simple series or parallel circuits.
Thus, according to Thevenin’s theorem, a complex circuit can be replaced by a voltage source (Thevenin voltage) and a series resistor (Thevenin resistance) across the terminals of interest.
