Results :
A. DC circuit analysis
a. Series Circuit
i. Calculation Voltages
V1=R1RTVS=100Ω1000Ω10 V=1 V
V2=R2RTVS=220Ω1000Ω10 V=2.2 V
V3=R3RTVS=680Ω1000Ω10 V=6.8 V

ii. PSpice analysis

V1=10 V-9 V=1 V

V2=9 V-6.8 V=2.2 V

V3=6.8 V-0 V=6.8 V

b. Parallel Circuit
i. Calculation Currents
I1= VsR1=20 V1.0 kΩ=20 mA

I2= VsR2=20 V2.2 kΩ=9.09 mA

I3= VsR3=20 V560 kΩ=35.7 mA

ii. PSpice analysis

I1=2 × 10-2=20 mA

I2=9.091 × 10-3=9.09 mA

I3=3.571 × 10-2=35.7 mA

c. Two Sources Circuit

i. Calculation current through R2
Step 1 : Consider 10 V alone
RTs1=R1+ R32=100Ω+50Ω=150Ω

ITs1= Vs1RTs1= 10V150V=66.7 mA

I2s1=R3R2+R3 ITs1=100Ω200Ω66.7 mA=33.3 mA

Step 2 : Consider 5 V alone

RTs2=R3+ R12=100Ω+50Ω=150Ω

ITs2= Vs2RTs2= 5V150V=33.3 mA

I2s2=R1R1+R2 ITs2=100Ω200Ω33.3 mA=16.7 mA

Step 3 : Add the values obtain from the both above steps
I2=I2s1+ I2 s2= 33.3 mA+16.7 mA=50 mA

ii. PSpice analysis

I2=5 × 10-2 =50 mA

B. AC circuit analysis

Discussion :
Suggestions for further work in the future:
1. Give the lab manual for convenience in learning.
2. Do not use red maker while writing on the whiteboard because it is unclear.
3. Use LCD projector to show how to do the experiment.
4. Use microphone to give the explanation.
Conclusion :
1. The DC circuit analysis is verified by PSpice Software.
2. The AC circuit analysis is verified by PSpice Software.
3. The PSpice Software can be used in both DC and AC circuit analysis.
