There is no simple, straight forward, one-fits-all formula. There is a method, however-creating a thevanin equivalent circuit with one resistive element and your voltage source, you can convert this to a current source (I = V / R).

What is meant by dependent source?

A dependent source is a source that is dependent on, i.e. a function of, some other thing in the circuit. Often, a transistor is represented as a dependent current source, with collector-emitter current being dependent on base-emitter current times hFe, or beta-gain, limited by the collector-emitter resistor network.


What is the maximum current that can be drawn from a voltage source?

The maximum current that can be drawn from a voltage source is dependent on the impedance of that source, the impedance of the connections to the source, and the energy available from that source.


What happens if a dependent current source is short circuited?

Nothing happens.


How will you convert a open current circuit to a open voltage circuit?

The first thing you need to know is the internal resistance of the current source, the voltage source will have the same internal resistance. Then compute the open circuit voltage of the current source, this will be the voltage of the voltage source. You are now done.


How do you convert 2.2kVA to amps?

You can't convert kVA (kilovolt.amps) to current (amps) unless you know the source voltage and/or load resistance (ohms) which is drawing the current from the source. If you know the voltage in kilovolts, you just divide the kilovolt.amps figure by the number of kilovolts and the result is the current in amperes. If you know both source voltage and load resistance you can use Ohm's Law to get the current: I = V / R In words, Ohm's law is: Current (amps) = Voltage divided by Resistance (ohms)

What is the difference between independent and dependent source?

Independent SourcesIndependent sources produce current/voltage at a particular rate that is dependent only on time. These sources may output a constant current/voltage, or they may output current/voltage that varies with time.Dependent SourcesDependent sources are current or voltage sources whose output value is based on time or another value from the circuit. A dependent source may be based on the voltage over a resistor for example, or even the current flowing through a given wire. The following sources are possible:Current-controlled current sourceCurrent-controlled voltage sourceVoltage-controlled current sourceVoltage-controlled voltage sourceDependent sources are useful for modelling transistors or vacuum tubes.


What is the maximum current that can be drawn from a voltage source?

The maximum current that can be drawn from a voltage source is dependent on the impedance of that source, the impedance of the connections to the source, and the energy available from that source.


Why an independent voltage source is made deactivated by shortening and an independent current source is made deactivated by open circuiting?

Short-circuiting an independent voltage source effectively sets its voltage to zero, deactivating it. Since current in a short circuit is maximized, this creates a situation where the voltage source cannot maintain its specified voltage. Open circuiting an independent current source prevents the flow of current, effectively deactivating it because without a complete path for current to flow, the current source cannot maintain its specified current output.
