A: THEVENIN theorem simply is a way to simplify a complex input and resistance to a simple form. maybe you are confusing it with nodal analysis
Short circuit ratio is the ratio of field current required for the rated voltage at open circuit to the field current required for the rated armature current at short circuit
The output short circuit current is the solar cell's current when the voltage is zero, or when it, is short circuited.
Switches, fuses and circuit breakers are examples of some of the electrical parts which can connect or disconnect a circuit to a source of current. A diode does it for alternating current, but only for one half of each cycle. "Connecting" allows an electric current to flow through the circuit. "Disconnecting" stops an electric current from flowing through the circuit.
complex circuit
A circuit in which electricity only flows in one path is called a series circuit.
This theorem is used to determine the value of current in specific branch of a multi voltage source circuit .
we can calculate the current in a commmon electrical circuit by this formulae i.e,I=V\R where i is the current flowing in the conductor, R is resistance , V is the voltage.. THE FORMULA IS CORRECT but the term conductor does not suffice an explanation since a conductor is low in resistance R= resistance not conduction.
Norton's theorem is the current equivalent of Thevenin's theorem.
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.

If this is an independent current source, it has to be disconnected.Independent voltage sources are replaced by a short-circuit.More about this at (see Related links):MasteringElectronicsDesign.com: How to Apply Thevenin's Theorem - Part 1, Solving Circuits with Independent SourcesandMasteringElectronicsDesign.com: How to Apply Thevenin's Theorem - Part 2.

This would not be a hypothesis, but an explanation. A fuse is a piece of wire with a low melting point which melts if too much current flows in the circuit. It is designed to break before the rest of the circuit is damaged.
To solve any D.C. circuit by using Thevenin Theorem,First of all load resistance RL is disconnected from the circuit and open circuit voltage across the circuit is calculated (known as Thevenin equivalent voltage)Secondly, the battery is removed by leaving behind its internal resistance. Now we calculate equivqlent resistance of the circuit ( called Thevenin equivalent resistance).Now we connect Thevenin Voltage in series with Equivalent resistance of the circuit and now connect load resistance across this circuit to calculate current flowing through the load resistance.Whereas in the case of using Norton theorem, we again remove the load resistance if any, and then short circuit these open terminals and calculate short circuit current Isc.Second step is same as in Thevenin theorem i.e. remove all sources of emf by replacing their internal resistances and calculate equivqalent resistance of the circuit.Lastly, join short circuit current source in parallel with equivalent resistance of the circuit. Now, we can calculate votage across the resistance which was connected in parallel with Isc.So, by knowing the open circuit voltage, we can calculate current flowing the resistance and on the other hand , by knowing the short curcuit current , we can calculate voltage across the resistance.
It is used to reduce the complexitiy of the networkAnswerNorton's Theorem is one of several theorems necessary to solve 'complex' circuits -i.e. circuits that are not series, parallel, or series parallel.

Thevenin's Theorem is especially useful in analyzing power systems and other circuits where one particular resistor in the circuit (called the "load" resistor) is subject to change, and re-calculation of the circuit is necessary with each trial value of load resistance, to determine voltage across it and current through it.
