Can you suggest any alternative procedure for the determination of thevenin's resistance?

One alternative method to determine Thevenin's resistance is to perform a voltage divider analysis on the circuit. By applying a test voltage source and analyzing the resulting current, you can calculate the Thevenin resistance based on Ohm's Law. Additionally, you could use nodal analysis or mesh analysis techniques to determine Thevenin's resistance by setting up equations based on the circuit components.

Thevenin's theorem is applicable to a network of?
thevenins theorem is applicable to network which is linear ,bilateral
Are there any restrictions for the use of circuit elements in Thevenin's theorem verification?
no thevenins theorem works for every type of element. for a.c. analysis of a circiut consisting of capacitors inductors etc. a different method is followed to find thevenins equivalent but it is valid...
What are the applications of thevenin's theorem?
in simplifying complex circuits and for different loads this theorem proven very useful
Can thevenins's theorem be applicable in a network having nonlinear elements?
yesAnswerNo it cannot, any more than Ohm's Law can be applied to circuits with non-linear elements.
Where you use thevenins theorem in daily life?
The number of vehicles per hour entering a busy road junction equals the number leaving it The amount of liquid entering a pipe equals the amount issuing from the end, plus the leaks.
What is the difference between a thevenins equivalent circuit and a nortons equivalent circuit?
A thevenin's equivalent circuit uses a voltage source and the norton's equivalent circuit uses a current source. Thévenin's theorem for linear electrical networks states that any combination of voltage sources, current sources and resistors with two terminals is electrically equivalent to a single voltage source V and a single series resistor R. For single frequency AC systems the theorem can also be applied to general impedances, not just resistors. The theorem was first discovered by German scientist Hermann von Helmholtz in 1853, but was then rediscovered in 1883 by French telegraph engineer Léon Charles Thévenin (1857-1926). Norton's theorem for electrical networks states that any collection of voltage sources and resistors with two terminals is electrically equivalent to an ideal current source, I, in parallel with a single resistor, R. For single-frequency AC systems the theorem can also be applied to general impedances, not just resistors. The Norton equivalent is used to represent any network of linear sources and impedances, at a given frequency. The circuit consists of an ideal current source in parallel with an ideal impedance (or resistor for non-reactive circuits). Norton's theorem is an extension of Thévenin's theorem and was introduced in 1926 separately by two people: Hause-Siemens researcher Hans Ferdinand Mayer (1895-1980) and Bell Labs engineer Edward Lawry Norton (1898-1983). Mayer was the only one of the two who actually published on this topic, but Norton made known his finding through an internal technical report at Bell Labs.
