Consider the two-port resistive network shown in the figure. When an excitation of 5 V is applied across Port 1, and Port 2 is shorted, the current through the short circuit at Port 2 is measured to be 1 A (see (a) in the figure).
Now, if an excitation of 5 V is applied across Port 2, and Port 1 is shorted (see(b) in the figure), what is the current through the short circuit at Port 1?

Question 2 Explanation:
According to reciprocity theorem,
In a linear bilateral single source network the ratio of response to excitation remains the same even after their positions get interchanged.
\therefore \quad \frac{I}{5}=\frac{1}{5} \Rightarrow I=1 \mathrm{A}

Question 4 Explanation:
In maximum power transformation, half of the voltage drops across source resistance, remaining half across the load.
\therefore voltage across source (R)
\begin{aligned} I_{L} R &=\frac{V_{s}}{2} \\ I_{L} &=\frac{V_{s}}{2 R} \end{aligned}
\therefore voltage across source (R)
\begin{aligned} I_{L} R &=\frac{V_{s}}{2} \\ I_{L} &=\frac{V_{s}}{2 R} \end{aligned}

Question 5 Explanation:

For maximum power transfer,
\begin{array}{l} R=R_{T h} \\ V_{0}=5 \times \frac{2 \mathrm{k} \Omega}{5 \mathrm{k} \Omega}=2 \mathrm{V} \end{array}
From output loop, V_{T H}=100 \times 2 \times \frac{40 \mathrm{k} \Omega}{50 \mathrm{k} \Omega}
\begin{array}{l} V_{\mathrm{TH}}=160 \mathrm{V}\\ \text { and } R_{\mathrm{TH}}=10 \mathrm{k} \Omega|| 40 \mathrm{k} \Omega=\frac{10 \times 40}{50}=8 \mathrm{k} \Omega \\ \therefore \text { Maximum power }=\frac{V^{2}_{\mathrm{Th}}}{4 R_{\mathrm{Th}}}=\frac{160 \times 160}{4 \times 8000}=0.8 \mathrm{W} \end{array}
