Sadiku, Fundamentals of Electric Circuits (7th ed., McGraw-Hill) — series/parallel and Δ–Y reduction, mesh and nodal analysis with dependent sources, first-order RC transients, AC phasor analysis, Thévenin equivalents, maximum-power transfer and Laplace (s-domain) circuit analysis; W. H. Hayt, J. E. Kemmerly & S. M. Durbin, Engineering Circuit Analysis (9th ed.) — companion treatment of supermesh/supernode bookkeeping and the initial-condition inductor model used in Q6.
Closed-book national examination, 3 hours, six questions of equal value; any five constitute a complete paper. All six are solved here. A Laplace-transform table and a star–delta conversion table are supplied on the last two pages of the exam. Phasor magnitudes are written as magnitude $\angle$ angle with angles in degrees; a common cosine time reference is used unless noted, and the sources marked rms in Q5 are treated as rms.
