A circuit consists of two, 12V dc batteries connected in parallel, with their positive terminals connected together. One source has an internal resistance of 20 and the other has an internal resistance of 4 02. Their connections are brought out to two terminals, A & B. The terminals need to be connected to supply a light source. The only available lamps are rated at 6 V, 1 W. a) Draw a circuit diagram of the above arrangement. b) Determine and draw the Thevenin equivalent circuit. c) Calculate the currents in each branch of the network to ensure the light source is operating at its rated values. d) Calculate the resistance of the light source. e) Use a circuit simulator to confirm your findings above.
