Superposition theorem can be applied only to circuits having____________?

Correct answer: D. linear bilateral elements

  • A. resistive elements
  • B. passive elements
  • C. non-linear elements
  • D. linear bilateral elements

Explanation

Superposition requires linear circuit elements so that each source produces a response proportional to its magnitude and the responses can be added. In standard circuit-theory MCQs, this is stated as a linear bilateral network; nonlinear elements such as diodes do not qualify.
